Abstract

We present the definition of fuzzy association rules and fuzzy transactions in a text framework. The traditional mining techniques are applied to documents to extract rules. The fuzzy framework allows us to deal with a fuzzy extended Boolean model. Text mining with fuzzy association rules is applied to one of the classical problems in Information Retrieval: query refinement. The extracted rules help users to query the system by showing them a list of candidate terms to refine the query. Different procedures to apply these rules in an automatic and semi-automatic way are also presented.
