Abstract:The issue of quantitative association rules in large databases is discussed in this paper. In order to soften partition boundary of the domain, the relational fuzzy c-means algorithm is adopted to determine two parameters of normal fuzzy numbers, then the normal fuzzy number model is adopted to partition the domain of the quantitative attributes and a series of linguistic value association rules are generated. The mining method of the linguistic value association rules is also provided. Because the abstract concepts can be well expressed with the linguistic values, the mined association rules are more abstract and easy to understand.
