Data mining techniques are used to discover hidden information from horizontal and vertical databases. Association rule discovery has emerged as an important problem in knowledge discovery and information mining. The affiliation mining errand comprises of distinguishing the continuous thing sets, and afterward shaping contingent ramifications rules among them. An efficient algorithm for the discovery of frequent item sets which forms the compute intensive phase of the task. A proficient calculation for the revelation of regular thing sets which structures the figure serious period of the assignment. Expanding interest for registering worldwide affiliation rules for the vertical databases has a place with distinctive locales in a manner that private information is not uncovered and site holder knows the worldwide discoveries and their individual information just. The coordination of even and vertical databases need to defeat the trouble of computational expense. To attain to this we propose a calculation for parallel and successive parceling to deliver a powerful aftereffect of better computational time, throughput, computational cost and bigger thing size in disseminated flat and vertical databases.

Data mining is used to extract important knowledge from large datasets, but sometimes these datasets are split among various parties. Association rule mining is one of the data mining technique used in distributed databases. This technique disclose some interesting relationship between locally large and globally large item sets and proposes an algorithm, fast distributed mining of association rules (FDM), which is an unsecured distributed version of the Apriori algorithm used to generates a small number of candidate sets and substantially reduces the number of messages to be passed at mining association rules. The main ingredient in proposed protocol are two novel secure multi party algorithm – one that computes the union of private subsets that each of the interacting player holds and another that test the inclusion of an element held by one player in a subset held by another. This protocol offers enhanced privacy with respect to the protocol. In addition, it is simpler and signifi...

Abstract Discovery of association rules is an important problem in database mining. In this paper we present new algorithms for fast association mining, which scan the database only once, addressing the open question whether all the rules can be efficiently extracted in a single database pass. The algorithms use novel itemset clustering techniques to approximate the set of potentially maximal frequent itemsets.

Data Mining refers to extracting or “Mining” knowledge from large amounts of data. Today’s Industrial scenario is having manifold of data which is data rich and information poor .The information and knowledge gained can be used for applications ranging from business management, production control ,and market analysis, to engineering design and science exploration. Data Mining can be viewed as a result of natural evolution of information technology. Association rule mining finds interesting association among a large set of data items. With massive amounts of data continuously being collected and stored. Many industries are becoming interested in mining association rules from their databases. The discovery of interesting association relationships among huge amounts of business transaction records can help in many business decision making process , such as catalogue design, cross marketing, and loss leader analysis.
Association Rule discovery has been an important problem of investigation in knowledge discovery and data mining. An association rule describes associations among the sets of items which occur together in transactions of databases.The Association Rule mining task consists of finding the frequent itemsets and the rules in the form of conditional implications with respect to some prespecified threshold values of support and confidence.The interestingness of Association Rules are determined by these two measures. However, other measures of interestingness like lift and conviction are also used. But, there occurs an explosive growth of discovered association rules and many of such rules are insignificant. In this paper we introduce a new measure of interestingness called Inter Itemset Distance or Spread and implemented this notion based on the approaches of the apriori algorithm with a view to reduce the number of discovered Association Rules in a meaningful manner. An analysis of the working of the new algorithm is done and the results are presented and compared with the results of conventional apriori algorithm.
Data mining is as a new area of research has taken its place as one of the most important techniques in the decision making process. Mining association rules is one of simple yet powerful technique in the data mining process The problem of mining association rules is composed of finding the large itemsets and to generate the association rules from these itemsets. Usually the dataset must be scanned many times in order to find the large itemsets. Many algorithms have been developed to increase the performance of mining association rules through reducing the number of scans over the dataset. This work aims to enhance and optimise the process even further by developing techniques to reduce the number of database scans to just only one.

Discovery of association rules is an important database mining problem. Mining for association rules involves extracting patterns from large databases and inferring useful rules from them. Several parallel and sequential algorithms have been proposed in the literature to solve this problem. Almost all of these algorithms make repeated passes over the database to determine the commonly occurring patterns or itemsets (set of items), thus incurring high I/O overhead. In the parallel case, these algorithms do a reduction at the end of each pass to construct the global patterns, thus incurring high synchronization cost.
Abstract — Data mining is an emerging field that comprises of various functions like classification, association rule mining, clustering, and outlier analysis. Association rule mining is a major, interesting and extremely studied function of data mining. Association rule mining identifies the correlation between different itemsets and find frequent and interesting rules. Frequent itemset mining is very common first step in considering datasets through wide range of applications. There have been proposed some methods in literature which scan database twice or more times to find approximate frequent patterns and frequent itemsets. Scanning database again and again makes mining process tedious and slow. The traditional approaches needs that every item in itemset happens in each supporting transaction. Yet the actual data has noise (meaningless data) and in existence of a noise, outdated itemset mining procedures might not be able to identify related frequent itemset(s). We have proposed a method in this paper that solved above mentioned problems. It scans database only once and makes mining fast and efficient. Our proposed method used technique named Fault Tolerance to handle noisy data and replaced database with a tree like structure. We are unaware of any technique yet introduced that can find approximate frequent itemset with only one scan of database. Further, our proposed method has an advantage on traditional Apriori and frequent pattern (FP) Tree) method as for as scanning and infrequent candidate generation are concerned. Keywords: Approximate pattern; frequent pattern; Apriori; fault tolerance; FP-Tree; FT-Apriori; AFI-FP

Association rule mining is a way to find interesting associations among different large sets of data item. Apriori is the best known algorithm to mine the association rules. In this dissertation, clustering technique is used to improve the computational time of mining association rules in databases using Access data. Clusters are used to improve the performance of computer. Clusters are responsible for finding the frequent k item sets; hence lot of work is performed in parallel, thus decreasing the Computation time. This parallel nature of clusters is exploited to decrease the computation time in mining of data and also it reduces the bottleneck in the central site. Since after mining of data, there will be explosion of number of results and determining most frequent item sets will be difficult, so item sets are divided into two groups' namely-globally frequent item sets and locally frequent item sets.
Association Rule Mining is one of the crucial research areas of Data Mining. Distributed database is popular concept for current time. One of the efficient algorithms for ARM is FP-tree algorithm. In this paper we described a design of using FP-tree algorithm in a distributed database system. Our design will help to reduce the communication cost between the different parts of the distributed database.

Data mining is involved with the use of advanced data analysis tools to find out new, suitable patterns and project the relationship among the patterns which were not known prior. In data mining, association rule learning is a more suitable method for ascertaining new relations between variables in large databases. The objective the technique focuses on the formulation of association rules. The discovery of association relationships among large amount of transactions as well as data may be vital for making multi decisions. Numerous algorithms are available to discover association rules. Usually quite few algorithms depend on the use of minimum support whereas other algorithms are inclined to highly interrelated items. In this paper it is intended to describe the association rule algorithms and a comparison of two algorithms representative of these approaches, e.g. support and confidence based approaches.

Association rule methods are among the most used approaches for Knowledge Discovery in Databases (KDD), as they allow discovering and extracting hidden meaningful relationships between attributes or items in large datasets in the form of rules. Algorithms to extract these rules require considerable time and large memory spaces. This paper presents an algorithm that decomposes this complex problem into subproblems and processes items by category according to their support. Very frequent items and fairly frequent items are studied together. To evaluate the performance of the proposed algorithm, it was compared with Eclat and LCMFreq on two actual transactional databases. The experimental results showed that the proposed algorithm was faster in execution time and demonstrated its efficiency in memory consumption.

In this paper the problem of discovering association rules among items in extremely large databases has been considered. A novel mining algorithm named Improved Cluster Based Association Rules (ICBAR) has been proposed which can explore efficiently the large itemsets. Achieving this and initializing the cluster table (where transaction records with length k are placed in kth cluster table), database will be once scanned. Simultaneously an array with appropriate size for each itemset (named itemset array (IA)) will be created. Here kth element in the array of each itemset indicates number of transaction records in kth cluster table which have that itemset. Presented method not only prunes considerable amounts of data by comparing with the partial cluster tables but also reduces the number of large candidate itemset that must be checked in each cluster through itemset arrays. Performance and efficiency of proposed method has been compared with CBAR and Apriori algorithms. Experiments illustrate that ICBAR will do better than both of them.
The knowledge discovery algorithms have become ineffective at the abundance of data and the need for fast algorithms or optimizing methods is required. To address this limitation, the objective of this work is to adapt a new method for optimizing the time of association rules extractions from large databases. Indeed, given a relational database (one relation) represented as a set of tuples, also called set of attributes, we transform the original database as a binary table (Bitmap table) containing binary numbers. Then, we use this Bitmap table to construct a data structure called Peano Tree stored as a binary file on which we apply a new algorithm called BF-ARM (extension of the well known Apriori algorithm). Since the database is loaded into a binary file, our proposed algorithm will traverse this file, and the processes of association rules extractions will be based on the file stored on disk. The BF-ARM algorithm is implemented and compared with Apriori, Apriori+ and RS-Rules+ a...

Association Rule Mining (ARM) is one of the well know and most researched technique of data mining. There are so many ARM algorithms have been designed that their counting is a large number. In this paper we have surveyed the various ARM algorithms in four computing environments. The considered computing environments are sequential computing, parallel and distributed computing, grid computing and cloud computing. With the emergence of new computing paradigm, ARM algorithms have been designed by many researchers to improve the efficiency by utilizing the new paradigm. This paper represents the journey of ARM algorithms started from sequential algorithms, and through parallel and distributed, and grid based algorithms to the current state-of-the-art, along with the motives for adopting new machinery.

AbstractÐAssociation rule discovery has emerged as an important problem in knowledge discovery and data mining. The association mining task consists of identifying the frequent itemsets and then, forming conditional implication rules among them. In this paper, we present efficient algorithms for the discovery of frequent itemsets which forms the compute intensive phase of the task. The algorithms utilize the structural properties of frequent itemsets to facilitate fast discovery. The items are organized into a subset lattice search space, which is decomposed into small independent chunks or sublattices, which can be solved in memory. Efficient lattice traversal techniques are presented which quickly identify all the long frequent itemsets and their subsets if required. We also present the effect of using different database layout schemes combined with the proposed decomposition and traversal techniques. We experimentally compare the new algorithms against the previous approaches, obtaining improvements of more than an order of magnitude for our test databases.
— There are many techniques to extract association rules from large datasets, but sometimes these datasets are distributed horizontally which is called strew database. In the strew database there are several sites or players that hold homogeneous database this database shares the same schema but hold information on different entities. For extracting association rules from such database the existing system is not so secure and efficient. The proposed system given here provides a secure and efficient solution for the problem stated above. Here we are going to use Fast Distributed mining (FDM) which is an unsecured distributed version of the Apriori algorithm. The main ingredients of the proposed system are two novel secure multi-party algorithms—one that computes the union of private subsets that each of the interacting players hold, and another that tests the inclusion of an element held by one player in a subset held by another. This protocol offers enhanced privacy with respect to the protocol in [18]. In addition, it is simpler and is significantly more efficient in terms of communication rounds, communication cost and computational cost.

Discovering patterns or frequent episodes in transactions is an important problem in data-mining for the purpose of infering deductive rules from them. Because of the huge size of the data to deal with, parallel algorithms have been designed for reducing both the execution time and the number of repeated passes over the database in order to reduce, as much as possible, I/O overheads. In this paper, we introduce new approaches for the implementation of two basic algorithms for association rules discovery (namely Apriori and Eclat). Our approaches combine efficient data structures to code different key information (line indexes, candidates) and we exhibit how to introduce parallelism for processing such data-structures.
