Abstract

The proposed model is mining the interesting association rules based on soft set theory. We have introduced a threshold function in the aforesaid model to eliminate the user defined threshold value for minimum support and confidence to discover interesting rules. In addition, a preprocessing step has been carried out for transforming the quantitative data into Boolean-valued data i. e. , all entries of the dataset is holding either a value 0 or 1. This method is validated through a case study on postoperative patient data retrieved from UCI machine learning repository.
