assoc

Returns the relationship between item sets, the minimum support, minimum lift, and minimum confidence value.

Attention: Available only with Activate commercial edition.

Syntax

rules = assoc(predict, minimum_support)

rules = assoc(predict, minimum_support, options)

Example

cdata = [1, 5, 7, 8; 1, 6, 9, 7; 9, 7, 3, 2];
bdata = one_hot_encode(cdata);
predict = apriori(bdata, 0.6);
options = struct;
options.min_lift = 0.5;
options.min_confidence = 0.08;
rules = assoc(predict, 0.05, options)
