Abstract

This paper presents an approach which uses Quine–McCluskey algorithm in order to discover frequent itemsets to generate association rules. In this approach, the given transaction database is converted into a Boolean matrix form to discover frequent itemsets. After generating the Boolean matrix of given database Quine–McCluskey algorithm is applied. Quine–McCluskey algorithm minimizes the given Boolean matrix to generate the frequent itemset pattern. This method requires less number of scans compared to other existing techniques.
