5. Evaluation The creation of our graphical and Command Line interface came about as a means of testing our algorithms. Since we were attempting to mine associations from large datasets, it made sense to test our mining algorithms on artificially created datasets so as to check whether or not our algorithms were successful. Therefore, we devised the graphical interface to allow us to create sufficiently large datasets based upon association rules. This allowed us to plant specific rules with set supports and confidence with in our test datasets. We were then able to run our test datasets through our association mining algorithms to verify whether or not the algorithms correctly identified the rules which we had planted with the correct …show more content…

6. Conclusion and Future Extensions This project was one of our top choices specifically because it approached a very interesting problem while giving us the opportunity to work with a renowned company. We had the chance to expand our machine learning knowledge, enhance our technical abilities and get an insight into what it is like to work with a real client from industry. This experience was challenging as we found out clients can be difficult to work with and sometimes unreliable. Therefore, one of our main gains from this project is that we learned how to overcome non ideal situations that arise due to uncooperative clients. We also strengthened our team work skills as well as our time management aptitudes, due to using the Scrum methodology. As we were very fond of the idea that stood behind our project, we tried to implement it at the best of our abilities. We wanted to make it accessible to everyone, not only companies in the financial sector and we had multiple thoughts on how to achieve this. Unfortunately, due to the limited time we could not put all of them into practice. One of the future extensions that we considered was changing the internal representation of association rules and the associated values such as support and confidence. We
