Extracting of Positive and Negative Association Rules

Abstract

Abstractssociation rules analysis is a basic technique to expose how items/patterns are associated to each other. There are two common ways to measure association such as Support and Confidence. Several methods have been proposed in the literature to diminish the number of extracted association rules. Association Rule Mining is one of the greatest current data mining techniques designed to group objects together from huge databases aiming to take out the motivating correlation and relation with massive quantity of data. Association rule mining is used to discover the associated patterns from datasets. In this paper, we propose association rules from new methods on web usage mining. Generally, web usage log structure has several records so we have to overcome those unwanted records from large dataset. First of all the pre-processed data from the NASA dataset is clustered by the popular K-Means algorithm. Subsequently, the matrix calculation is progressed on that data. Further, the associations are performed on filtered data and get rid of the final associated page results. Positive and negative association rules are gathered by using new algorithm with Annul Object ( ). Wherever the object " " is presented those rules are known as negative association rule. Otherwise, the rules are positive association rules.
