```{r echo=FALSE, results = 'asis'}
pkg <- "arulesViz"

source("https://raw.githubusercontent.com/mhahsler/pkg_helpers/main/pkg_helpers.R")
pkg_title(pkg)
```

## Introduction

This R package 
extends package [arules](https://github.com/mhahsler/arules) with various visualization techniques for association rules and itemsets. The package also includes several interactive visualizations for rule exploration.

```{r echo=FALSE, results = 'asis'}
pkg_usage(pkg)
pkg_citation(pkg, 2)
```

This might also require the development version of [arules](https://github.com/mhahsler/arules).

## Features
* Visualizations using engines `ggplot2` (default engine for most methods), `grid`, `base` (R base plots), `htmlwidget` (powered by `plotly` and `visNetwork`). 
* Interactive visualizations using `grid`, `plotly` and `visNetwork`.
* Interactive rule inspection with `datatable`.
* Integrated interactive rule exploration using `ruleExplorer`. 

Available Visualizations

* Scatterplot, two-key plot
* Matrix and matrix 3D visualization
* Grouped matrix-based visualization
* Several graph-based visualizations
* Doubledecker and mosaic plots
* Parallel Coordinate plot


```{r echo=FALSE, results = 'asis'}
pkg_install(pkg)
```

## Usage 

Mine some rules.
```{r }
library("arulesViz")
data("Groceries")
rules <- apriori(Groceries, parameter = list(support = 0.005, confidence = 0.5))
```

### Standard visualizations

```{r scatterplot}
plot(rules)
```

```{r graph}
plot(rules, method = "graph", limit = 20)
```

### Interactive visualization

Live examples for interactive visualizations can be seen in [Chapter 5 of An R Companion for Introduction to Data Mining](https://mhahsler.github.io/Introduction_to_Data_Mining_R_Examples/book/association-analysis-basic-concepts-and-algorithms.html#interactive-visualizations)
