Putting a Support Threshold in Apriori Algorithm - SAS E-miner

NJSAS — Mon, 15 Oct 2018 22:50:20 GMT

Hi,

I need guidance on setting a threshold for the "support" in Apriori Algorithm using SAS E-miner. The package has a threshold for confidence but not support.

Kindly advise.

Thanks.

I need guidance on setting a threshold for the "support" in Apriori Algorithm using SAS E-miner.

The Association node in SAS Enterprise Miner allows you to specify the Minimum Confidence level and the minimum support either measured by count or percentage using the following node properties:

* Minimum Confidence Level - specifies the minimum confidence level that is required to generate a rule.

* Support Type - specify minimum support based on Count or Percent, and then set the appropriate parameter below:

-- Support Count - specifies the minimum transaction frequency to support an association.

-- Support Percentage - specifies the minimum transaction frequency to support an association.

I hope this helps!

Doug
