Frequent Itemset and association rules analysis on genes

Generates frequent itemsets and association rules from the gene data.

Frequent itemsets correspond to different gene characteristics (locations and functions) that frequently occur together across different genes. The quality of a frequent itemset is given by its support which is the fraction of genes for which a given combination of gene characteristics hold; the longer the itemset the lower its support.

Based on the frequent itemset this WF also generates association rules which have some itemset in a premise and some in the conclusion. The quality of a rule is given by its confidence.
