Abstract

Data-mining methods have the drawbacks to generate a very large number of rules, sometimes obvious, useless or not very interesting to the user. In this paper we propose a new approach to find unexpected rules from a set of discovered association rules. This technique is characterized by analyzing the discovered association rules using the user's existing knowledge about the domain represented by a fuzzy domain ontology and then ranking the discovered rules according to the conceptual distance of the rule.
