Abstract

The traditional approaches of association rule mining have relied on high support condition to find interesting rules. However, in some application such as analyzing the web page link and discovering some unusual combinations of some factors that have always caused some disease, we are interested in rules with high confidence that have very low support or need not have high support. In these cases, the traditional algorithms are not suitable since it relies on first satisfying high support. In this paper, we propose a new model, CP(Confidence Pattern)-Tree, to identify high confidence rule between 2-items without support constraint. constraint. In addition, we discuss confidence association rule between two more items without support constraint.
