Apriori Algorithm Optimization using Temporary Table

Apriori algorithm has been widely used to establish association rules and be applied on various areas. However, when applying this algorithm to some applications with relational database, the iteration process become ineffective. This study proposes the use of transaction temporary table to increase the time performance of apriori algorithm specifically in the scanning process of support value. The result showed that the algorithm ran faster on the process that using temporary transaction table.
