Exploratory Mining and Pruning Optimizations of Constrained Association Rules

Summary: Constraint-based, human-centered exploratory mining replaces black-box association-rule mining with constrained association queries (domain, class, and SQL-style aggregates) to guide discovery. CAP uses anti-monotonicity and succinctness to classify constraints into four categories and prune aggressively, delivering up to 80× speedups. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
