The many interesting relations and relevance between the different items of sets can be located by means of the association rules mining technique of data mining.The mining of association rules from databases becomes especially necessary with the data in collection and storation becomes even larger.However,an analysis of the association rules mining technique and its relevant algorithm of Apriori has indicated that there exist problems in the technique in discussion.This paper is a review of the algorithms used to optimize the technique in terms of their strengths and weaknesses.New research directions of the algorithm of Apriori have also been pointed out in this paper.
