Some things that “go together”: Outlook = sunny AND Temp. = hot go together 2 times, Outlook = sunny AND Temp. = cool go together only once.
For association, we look for things
that “go together”

“Support” is the number of instances
where a particular rule is correct.
Temp. = cool AND Humid. = normal
occurs 4 times in the dataset,
so the support is 4.

Mine only the association rules that have the designated class attribute as the antecedent.
Keep the number of rules at 100.

What’s the difference between classification and association?
•In one sense, association is like classification, except that instead of considering just one attribute as the class attribute, it considers every attribute and every combination of attributes as a class, and then performs a form of classification on all possible classes.
•Unlike classification, association does not necessarily consider all attributes when attempting to create rules, but operates on sub-set combinations of attributes.
•Association only works on nominal attributes, not numerical attributes, although numerical attributes can be discretized.
