Mining least relational patterns from multi relational tables

Existing mining association rules in relational tables only focus on discovering the relationship among large data items in a database. However, association rule for significant rare items that appear infrequently in a database but are highly related with other items is yet to be discovered. In this...

Description
Summary:Existing mining association rules in relational tables only focus on discovering the relationship among large data items in a database. However, association rule for significant rare items that appear infrequently in a database but are highly related with other items is yet to be discovered. In this paper, we propose an algorithm called Extraction Least Pattern (ELP) algorithm that using a couple of predefined minimum support thresholds. Results from the implementation reveal that the algorithm is capable of mining rare item in multi relational tables.
