In data mining, the association rules are used to find for the associations between the different items of the transactions database. As the data collected and stored, rules of value can be found through association rules, which can be applied to help managers execute marketing strategies and establish sound market frameworks. This paper aims to use Fuzzy Frequent Pattern growth (FFP-growth) to...

Fuzzy association rule mining discovers patterns in transactions, such as shopping baskets in a supermarket, or Web page accesses by a visitor to a Web site. Temporal patterns can be present in fuzzy association rules because the underlying process generating the data can be dynamic. However, existing solutions may not discover all interesting patterns because of a previously unrecognised probl...

Effective methods for feature and model structure selection are very important for data-driven modeling, data mining, and system identification tasks. This paper presents a new method for selecting important variables (regressors) in nonlinear (dynamic) models with mixed discrete (categorical, fuzzy) and continuous inputs and outputs. The proposed method applies fuzzy association rule mining. T...

In this paper we extend the problem of mining weighted association rules. A classical model of boolean and fuzzy quantitative association rule mining is adopted to address the issue of invalidation of downward closure property (DCP) in weighted association rule mining where each item is assigned a weight according to its significance w.r.t some user defined criteria. Most works on DCP so far st...
