Standardising the lift of an association rule
نویسندگان
چکیده
The lift of an association rule is frequently used, both in itself and as a component in formulae, to gauge the interestingness of a rule. The range of values that lift may take is used to standarise lift so that it is more effective as a measure of interestingness. This standardisation is extended to account for minimum support and confidence thresholds. A method of visualising standardised lift, through the relationship between lift and its upper and lower bounds, is proposed. The application of standardised lift a measure of interestingness is demonstrated on college application data and questionnaire data. In the latter case, negations are introduced into the mining paradigm and an argument for this inclusion is put forward. This argument includes a quantification of the number of extra rules that arise when negations are considered.

A Novel Mapreduce Lift Association Rule Mining Algorithm (Mrlar) for Big Data
Big Data mining is an analytic process used to discover the hidden knowledge and patterns from a massive, complex, and multi-dimensional dataset. Single-processor's memory and CPU resources are very limited, which makes the algorithm performance ineffective. Recently, there has been renewed interest in using association rule mining (ARM) in Big Data to uncover relationships between what seems t...
متن کاملChi-squared computation for association rules: preliminary results
Chi squared analysis is useful in determining the statistical significance level of association rules. We show that the chi squared statistic of a rule may be computed directly from the values of confidence, support, and lift (interest) of the rule in question. Our results facilitate pruning of rule sets obtained using standard association rule mining techniques, allow identification of statist...

متن کاملAssociation rule mining application to diagnose smart power distribution system outage root cause
Smart grid has been introduced to address power distribution system challenges. In conventional power distribution systems, when a power outage happens, the maintenance team tries to find the outage cause and mitigate it. After this, some information is documented in a dataset called the outage dataset. If the team can estimate the outage cause before searching for it, the restoration time will...
