Beyond Market Baskets: Generalizing Association Rules to Correlations

Summary: Generalizes association rules to correlations using chi-squared significance for item presence/absence. Proposes an upward-closed correlation measure yielding a border between correlated and uncorrelated itemsets in the lattice, with pruning and an efficient algorithm, validated on census data and a text corpus.
