Une approche logique pour la fouille de règles d'association
Abstract
All the algorithms that mine association rules, share the same two steps methodology:
frequent itemsets enumeration followed by effective association rules generation step. In this
paper, we propose a new propositional satisfiability based approach to mine association rules in
a single step. To highlight the flexibility of our proposed framework, we also address two other
variants, namely the closed and indirect association rules mining tasks. Experiments on many
datasets show that on both closed and indirect association rules mining tasks, our declarative
approach achieves better performance than the state-of-the-art specialized techniques.
