On the Discovery of Interesting Patterns in Association Rules

Summary: Introduces calendar algebra to express temporal patterns in association rules and defines calendric rules aligned to user time expressions. Proposes discovery algorithms and optimizations, with results showing 5%-250% speedups over naive approaches. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
