Abstract

Association rule mining is one of the well established fields in data mining. This paper has surveyed the research papers in this field from 1993 to 2013. This paper gives detailed account of fundamental algorithms and its advantages and disadvantages. This also provides brief overview of current trends of association and frequent pattern mining and medical applications.
