Correct Answer : Get Lastest Questions and Answer : Explanation: Using the lift we can measure, how many times more often X and Y occur together than expected if they are statistically independent to each other. Lift is a measure of how X and Y are really related rather than coincidently happening together. If Lift = 1 means X and Y are independent. If Lift is larger than 1, then lift suggest a greater strength of the association between X and Y.
Question : Suppose you have transactions where transaction appears as below {M,E} appear 300 times, {M} appear 500 times, {E} appear 400 times, {B} appear 400 times and {M,B} appears 400. What you can conclude with that?
1. You can say {M,B} had stronger Association then {M,E}
2. You can say {M,E} had stronger Association then {M,B}
Correct Answer : Get Lastest Questions and Answer : Explanation: To check whether Association is stronger or now we can use the formula as below Lift {X->Y} = Support for the {X,Y}/Support for {X} * Support for {Y} Based on that Lift{M,E} = .3/(.5*.4) = 1.5 Lift{M,B} = .4/.5*.4 = 2 Hence, we can say that Association between {M,B} is more stronger than M,E
Question : How do you define the leverage, in case of the Apriori algorithms?
Correct Answer : Get Lastest Questions and Answer : Explanation: Leverage is used to measure the difference in the probability of appearing X and Y together in the dataset , compared to what would be expected if X and Y were statistically independent to each other. If Leverage is 0 means, X and Y are statically independent to each other. If Leverage is not zero, it means X and Y has some kind of relationship. Larger the value means, more stronger relationship.
