摘要：Background:Every biological process occurring within the living body involves the formation of protein complexes. Interactions between proteins are an important protein feature. Therefore, determining protein interaction has become one of the most significant problems in the post genomic era. Methodology:For effectively determining the interactions occurring among proteins computational approaches like association rule mining could be used. But, only support and confidence measures used with association rule mining can be insufficient at filtering out interesting rules, because it fails in implying the kind of association between given datasets. Correlation measure when used along with association mining could augment the support-confidence framework by deciding whether the association is positive or negative. Conclusion:In this study, we have presented a comparison between association rule mining and correlation in an attempt to indicate the ways in which correlation can augment the support-confidence framework.
