Learning

Practice Questions

Test your understanding with targeted questions related to the topic.

Question 1

Easy

Define Support in Association Rule Mining.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think about how often an itemset shows up in transactions.

Question 2

Easy

What does Confidence measure in an association rule?

πŸ’‘ Hint: Consider it as the reliability of the rule.

Question 1

What is the purpose of Support in Association Rule Mining?

  • A measure of transaction size
  • A measure of frequency of an itemset
  • A measure of rule strength

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think about how frequently itemsets show up in your transactions.

Question 2

True or False: A Lift value of less than 1 indicates a positive association between items.

  • True
  • False

πŸ’‘ Hint: Recall what Lift tells us about the strength of association.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Consider a dataset containing transactions with items: [['milk', 'bread', 'butter'], ['milk', 'sugar'], ['bread', 'butter'], ['milk', 'bread', 'sugar', 'eggs']]. Apply the Apriori algorithm to find all frequent itemsets with a minimum support threshold of 0.5.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Keep track of counts and ensure to apply the prune step effectively.

Question 2

If you have a rule A⟹B with Support = 0.6, Confidence = 0.8, and Lift = 1.2, explain the implications of these values.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think in terms of how likely the association is compared to independent occurrence.
