Abstract

Considering the user view, many problems can be found during the post-processing of association rules, since a large number of patterns can be obtained, which complicates the comprehension and identification of interesting knowledge. Thereby, this paper proposes an approach to improve the knowledge comprehensibility and to facilitate the identification of interesting generalized association rules during evaluation. This aid is realized combining objective and subjective measures with information visualization techniques, implemented on a system called RulEE-GARVis .
