Talk:Apriori algorithm
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
It would be very useful to include a bit more context here, and perhaps a more conceptual (as opposed to mathematical) definition. Also, if we use variable/set symbols, they should probably be defined explicitly within the article. As it is written now, I suspect the only people who would understand the article are those people who are already familiar with the topic (i.e. those who already understand it, and thus don't need the article).

I second that! I was going to say an implementation in C or Java or something would be helpful.

AFAIK, this is the Apriori algorithm, but the page is entitled A priori algorithm. I'm going to move it. --aciel 16:57, 30 August 2005 (UTC)
The Apriori algorithm for finding frequent itemsets is a little outdated. There are more efficient algorithms for finding frequent itemsets. Here are some good sources:

[edit] Boilerplate messages
{{confusing}}: Lots of jargon (some of which is redlinked), without a good explanation of what it's supposed to mean.
{{wikify}}: The algorithm block is ugly. It's set in monospace with LaTeX blocks on part of the line, meaning bits are rendered as images and others are rendered as plain text. Not really a suitable format. Would suggest stripping the leading spaces, instead using the :-prefix, along with making full statements in math markup (spacing commands are available, such as \,).
{{cleanup-context}}: There is one sentence explaining in brief that it's an algorithm, then dives deep into the technical detail. Needs a much better WP:LEAD section, and I'm not in a position where I can write one.
- PS: ironically, \LaTeX and \TeX are not supported by the LaTeX extension.

This article has recently been tagged as requiring cleanup to meet Wikipedia's quality standards. The article may have been flagged as needing cleanup because it has been suggested that:
For a full list of possible problems see Wikipedia:Manual of Style. As part of the cleanup process, the automated bot PocKleanBot has generated this notice as a focus of cleanup efforts, and also contacted several contributing editors of the article to bring their attention to the problem. You should use this section to discuss possible resolution of the problem and achieve consensus for action. Only when there is a consensus that the article is now cleaned up should you then de-list it by deleting the cleanup tag from the article, this causes the article to drop off the monthly cleanup-needed list page. |
