<span>In data mining, discrimination is the detrimental behavior of the people which is extensively studied in human society and economical science. However, there are negative perceptions about the data mining. Discrimination has two categories; one is direct, and another is indirect. The decisions depend on sensitive information attributes are named as direct discrimination, and the decisions which depend on non-sensitive information attributes are called as indirect discrimination which is strongly related with biased sensitive ones. Privacy protection has become another one of the most important problems in data mining investigation.  To overcome the above issues, an Efficient Association Representative Rule Concealing (EARRC) algorithm is proposed to protect sensitive information or knowledge and offer privacy protection with the classification of the sensitive data. Representative rule concealing is one kind of the privacy-preserving mechanisms to hide sensitive association rules. The objective of this paper is to reduce the alternation of the original database and perceive that there is no sensitive association rule is obtained. The proposed method hides the sensitive information by altering the database without modifying the support of the sensitive item. The EARRC is a type of association classification approach which integrates the benefits of both associative classification and rule-based PART (Projective Adaptive Resonance Theory) classification. Based on Experimental computations, proposed EARRC+PART classifier improves 1.06 NMI and 5.66 Accuracy compared than existing methodologies.</span>

Discrimination is one of the most important challenging tasks in web mining due to its many legal and ethical features in social media and enterprise based industries. There are an enormous amount of anti-discrimination measures available to prevent discrimination such as using some features like race, religion, gender, nationality, disability, marital status, and age besides situations like employment and training, access to public services, credit, insurance, etc. Practically, those systems are not possible to use in industries due to large datasets. Indirect discrimination contains a set of rules or techniques which are not explicitly specifying discriminatory features, deliberately or accidentally and could create unfair decisions. Existing systems have low classification accuracy and data loss with high discrimination data detection time. To overcome these limitations, an Efficient Discrimination Prevention and Rule Protection (EDPRP) approach has been proposed for removing the discrimination and protects the rule without damaging the data quality. The proposed system designing pre-processing discrimination prevention approach and specify the different features and represent to deal with direct or indirect discrimination. EDPRP is capable of preventing Indirect and direct discrimination, and it allows automatic and routine collection of large amounts of data from the public. In EDPRP, the discrimination prevention model is based on partial data sets as part of the automated decision making. Based on Experimental evaluations, proposed method improves 8% (percentages) of Support and 8 ms (milliseconds) of Execution Time compared than existing methods.
