Abstract

On account of the enormous amounts of rules that canbe produced by data mining algorithms, knowledgevalidation is one of the most problematic steps in anassociation rule discovery process.In order to findrelevant knowledge for decision-making, the user needs toreally rummage through the rules.Visualization can bevery beneficial to support him/her in this task byimproving the intelligibility of the large rule sets andenabling the user to navigate inside them.In this article,we propose to answer the association rule validationproblem by designing a human-centered visualizationmethod for the rule rummaging task.This new approachbased on a specific rummaging model relies on ruleinterestingness measures and on interactive rule subsetfocusing and mining.We have implemented ourrepresentation by developing a first experimentalprototype called ARVis.
