As a result, ACM is issuing a Notice of Concern for all papers published and strongly suggests that the papers from this Conference not be cited in the literature until ACM's investigation has concluded and final decisions have been made regarding the integrity of the peer review process for this Conference.
ABSTRACT
Association and classification are two important tasks in data mining. Literature abounds with works that unify these two techniques. This paper presents a new algorithm called Particle Swarm Optimization trained Classification Association Rule Mining (PSOCARM) for associative classification that generates class association rules (CARs) from transactional database by formulating a combinatorial global optimization problem, without having to specify minimal support and confidence unlike other conventional associative classifiers. We devised a new rule pruning scheme in order to reduce the number of rules and increasing the generalization aspect of the classifier. We demonstrated its effectiveness for phishing email and phishing website detection. Our experimental results indicate the superiority of our proposed algorithm with respect to accuracy and the number of rules generated as compared to the state-of-the-art algorithms.
