Abstract

Abstract

Association rule analysis, as one of the significant means of data mining, plays an important role in discovering the implicit knowledge in massive transaction data. To overcome the inherent defects of the classic Apriori algorithm, this paper proposes Apriori With Prejudging (AWP) algorithm. AWP algorithm adds a pre-judging procedure on the basis of the self-join and pruning progress in Apriori algorithm. It reduces and optimizes the k-frequent item sets using prior probability. In addition, the damping factor and compensating factor are introduced to revise the deviation caused by pre-judging. AWP algorithm simplifies the operation process of mining frequent item sets. Experimental results show that the improvement measures can effectively reduce the number of scanning databases and reduce the running time of the algorithm.
