The visual mining method of Apriori association rule based on natural language

Abstract

Visual data mining techniques can display the process of data mining and results to the user graphically, which makes the user more perceptual and easy to understand the meaning of the mining process and its results and moreover it is very important in data mining. However, most of the visual data mining now is progressed with the result of visualization. At the same time, it is not suitable for the graphical display to the visualization processing of the association rule. In view of the above shortcomings, in this paper, the whole mining process of Apriori association rule is visually conducted under the natural language by the way of the natural language processing method, including data preprocessing, mining process and the visualization display of mining results which provides an integrate set of schemes for the user with characteristics of being more perceptual and more easy to understand.
