Abstract
En 中文
Due to the increasing use of very large databases and data warehouses, mining useful information and helpful knowledge from transactions is evolving into an important research area. Most of conventional data mining algorithms identify the relation among transactions with binary values. Transactions with quantitative values are, however, commonly seen in real world applications. In the past, we proposed a fuzzy mining algorithm based on the Apriori approach to explore interesting knowledge from the transactions with quantitative values. This paper proposes another new fuzzy mining algorithm based on the AprioriTid approach to find fuzzy association rules from given quantitative transactions. Each item uses only the linguistic term with the maximum cardinality in later mining processes, thus making the number of fuzzy regions to be processed the same as that of the original items. The algorithm therefore focuses on the most important linguistic terms for reduced time complexity. Experimental results from the data in a supermarket of a department store show the feasibility of the proposed mining algorithm. (C) 2004 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
