It proceeds by identifying the frequent individual items in the database and extending them to larger and larger item sets as long as those itemsets appear sufficiently often in the database. The frequent itemsets determined by Apriori can be used to determine  association rules  which highlight general trends in the database ,  this has applications in domains such as  market basket analysis . This post is about the implementation of the apriori algorithm in R not to the detailed explanation of it. First, Download and install R Studio from  link  if it is not installed in your system. 1. First, install the required packages named - arules and apriori.    Go to Tools -> Install Packages --> arules/apriori 2. Importing your data set  The data import features can be access...
