Definability of Association Rules and Tables of Critical Frequencies

  • Chapter
Data Mining: Foundations and Practice

Part of the book series: Studies in Computational Intelligence ((SCI,volume 118))

Summary

Former results concerning definability of association rules in classical predicate calculi are summarized. A new intuitive criteria of definability are presented. The presented criteria concern important classes of association rules. They are based on tables of critical frequencies of association rules. These tables were introduced as a tool for avoiding complex computation related to verification of rules corresponding to statistical hypotheses tests.
