SONAR: System for Optimized Numeric Association Rules

Summary: SONAR mines optimized association rules from numeric and Boolean data by choosing support and confidence ranges to maximize rule quality under a threshold. It yields 2D rules on (Age, Balance) with rectangles or admissible (connected, x-monotone) regions, defining optimized support and confidence per region class.
