In this paper, a new approach for mining image association rules is presented, which involves the fine-tuned CNN model, as well as the proposed FIAR and OFIAR algorithms. Initially, the image transactional database is generated using feature vectors obtained from the fine-tuned CNN architecture. The proposed FIAR algorithm is used to generate hash-indexed image association rules, which are further optimized using the proposed OFIAR algorithm. This methodology combines the strengths of the CNN model to extract histogram features from images, the FIAR algorithm to efficiently mine frequent image itemsets, and the OFIAR algorithm to optimize image association rules. The proposed methodology can be used to discover hidden relationships among images, leading to new insights in image processing and analysis. Efficient results were obtained with a minimum support of 0.50 and a minimum confidence of 0.50. Experiments were performed on the fruits image dataset consisting of 2618 images from six different classes, and the results show that image mining is feasible and can produce strong optimized image association rules that can be further used for classification purposes.
