java.lang.Object

ca.pfv.spmf.algorithms.associationrules.fhsar.AlgoFHSAR

public class AlgoFHSAR
extends java.lang.Object

An implementation of the FHSAR algorithm for hiding sensitive association rules in a transaction database. This algorithm is described in the paper:

Method Detail

runAlgorithm

public void runAlgorithm(java.lang.String input,
                         java.lang.String inputSAR,
                         java.lang.String output,
                         double minsup,
                         double minconf)
                  throws java.io.IOException

Run the FHSAR algorithm

Parameters:

input - the file path to a transaction database

inputSAR - the file path to a set of sensitive association rules to be hidden

output - the output file path for writing the modified transaction database

minsup - the minimum support threshold

minconf - the minimum confidence threshold

Throws:

java.io.IOException - exception if an error while writing the file

printStats

public void printStats()

Print statistics about the latest execution.
