A fuzzy-genetic data-mining algorithm for extracting both association rules and membership functions from quantitative transactions is shown in this paper. It used a combination of large 1-itemsets and membershipfunction suitability to evaluate the fitness values of chromosomes. The calculation for large 1itemsets could take a lot of time, especially when the database to be scanned could not to...

Data mining has a tremendous contribution for researchers to extract the hidden knowledge and information which have been inherited in the raw data. This study has proposed a brand new and practical fuzzy analytic network process (FANP) based weighted RFM (Recency, Frequency, Monetary value) model for application in K-means algorithm for auto insurance customers’ segmentation. The developed met...

Over the years, data mining has attracted most of the attention from the research community. The researchers attempt to develop faster, more scalable algorithms to navigate over the ever increasing volumes of spatial gene expression data in search of meaningful patterns. Association rules are a data mining technique that tries to identify intrinsic patterns in spatial gene expression data. It h...

association rules are among important techniques in data mining which are used for extracting hidden patterns and knowledge in large volumes of data. association rules help individuals and organizations take strategic decisions and improve their business processes. extracted association rules from a database contain important and confidential information that if published, the privacy of indivi...

Partitioning of quantified attributes is essential for mining association rules from quantified data and the Fuzzy approach solves the sharp boundary problem giving Fuzzy association rules having high interpretability and rich applicability. The paper presents automated partitioning of numerical data into Fuzzy sets based on k means clustering algorithm. This can be used as a pre-processing ste...

clustering is a widespread data analysis and data mining technique in many fields of study such as engineering, medicine, biology and the like. the aim of clustering is to collect data points. in this paper, a cultural algorithm (ca) is presented to optimize partition with n objects into k clusters. the ca is one of the effective methods for searching into the problem space in order to find a n...

Different studies have proposedmethods formining fuzzy association rules fromquantitative data, where themembership functions were assumed to be known in advance. However, it is not an easy task to know a priori the most appropriate fuzzy sets that cover the domains of quantitative attributes for mining fuzzy association rules. This paper thus presents a new fuzzy data-mining algorithm for extr...

In addition to sharing and applying the knowledge in the community, knowledge discovery has become an important issue in the knowledge economic era. Data mining plays an important role of knowledge discovery. Therefore, this study intends to propose a novel framework of data mining which clusters the data first and then followed by association rules mining. The first stage employs the ant syste...
