Abstract

Class association rule mining is one of the most important studies supporting classification and prediction. Multiple researches recently focus on mining class association rules using support and confidence user-defined thresholds. However, in the real datasets, each attribute is associated with an indicator value. Based on the actual needs, in this paper, we propose a new approach which combines support, confidence and an interestingness measure (weight) to quickly improve the accuracy of class association rules.
