### DESCRIPTION

This module implements the apriori algorithm of data mining.

### ATTRIBUTES

* `totalTransactions` - The total number of transactions.

* `metrics` - The type of metrics:

* `minSupport` - The minimum support (required), default value is 0.01 (1%)

* `minConfidence` - The minimum confidence (required), default value is 0.10 (10%)

* `minLift` - The minimum lift (optional)

* `minLeverage` - The minimum leverage (optional)

* `minConviction` - The minimum conviction (optional)

* `minCoverage` - The minimum coverage (optional)

* `minCorrelation` - The minimum correlation (optional)

* `minCosine` - The minimum cosine (optional)

* `minLaplace` - The minimum laplace (optional)

* `minJaccard` - The minimum jaccard (optional)

* `precision` - Sets the floating point precision of the metrics (required), default value is 3

* `limitRules` - The limit of rules (optional)

* `limitSubsets` - The limit of subsets (optional)

* `output` - The output type (optional):

* 1 - Text file delimited by TAB;

* 2 - Excel file with chart.

* `pathOutputFiles` - The path to output files (optional)

* `messages` - A value boolean to display the messages (optional)

* `keyItemsDescription` - Hash table reference to add item by key and description.

* `keyItemsTransactions` - Hash table reference to add items by keys and transactions.

* `frequentItemset` - Frequent itemset.

* `associationRules` - A data structure to store the name of the rule, key items, implication, support, confidence, lift, leverage, conviction, coverage, correlation, cosine, laplace and jaccard.

```perl
$self->{associationRules} = {
'1' => {
'confidence' => '0.89',
'cosine' => '0.94',
'implication' => '{ 102 } => { 103 }',
'coverage' => '0.90',
'laplace' => '0.62',
'jaccard' => '0.89',
'support' => '0.80',
'correlation' => '0.67',
'items' => [
'102',
'103'
],
'conviction' => '1.80',
'lift' => '1.11',
'leverage' => '0.08'
},
#...
```

### METHODS

* `new` - Creates a new instance of Data::Mining::Apriori.

* `insert_key_items_transaction(\@items)` - Insert key items per transaction. Accepts the following arguments:

* An array reference to key items.

* `input_data_file("datafile.txt",",")` - Insert items per line (transaction). Accepts the following arguments:

* Data file;

* Item separator.

File contents (example):
```text
103,101
103,102
103,101,102
103,101,102
101,102
103,101,102
103,101,102
103,102
103,101,102
103,101,102
```

* `quantity_possible_rules` - Returns the quantity of possible rules.

* `generate_rules` - Generate association rules until no set of items meets the minimum support, confidence, lift, leverage, conviction, coverage, correlation, cosine, laplace, jaccard or limit of rules.

* `association_rules` - Generate association rules by length of large itemsets.
