In these web pages, I introduced two types of optimized association
rules for numeric attributes. I presented an algorithm that computes a one-dimensional optimized confidence rule in O(M) time.
I explained an algorithm that computes a one-dimensional optimized support rule in O(M) time.
And I also explained a randomized bucketing algorithm that makes almost equal-sized buckets in O(N log(M)) time.
We have developed a prototype system that uses all algorithms
presented here.
