Mining Spatial Association Rules with Spatial Analysis
Sha Zhongyao · Jisuanji gongcheng · 2003
In this paper, an efficient method for mining strong spatial associa tion rules with spatial analysis in geographic information databases is proposed and studied. A spatial association rule is a rule indicating certain associatio n relationship among a set of spatial and possibly some nonspatial predicates. A strong rule indicates that the patterns in the rule have relatively frequent oc currences in the database and strong implication relationships.
