Abstract
Data Mining techniques and extracting association rules from a big dataset play an interesting role in knowledge discovery. Therefore, the decision makers encounter a huge number of resulting association rules that can make them unable to choose and decide rationally between these different extracted rules, also the time of the generation of these association rules brings a new challenge, we propose to overcome these challenges a learning model based on FP-growth algorithm using Apache Spark framework, in order to analyze data and extract interesting association rules by taking into account some quality measures. Experimental results on road accident data in France show that the proposed approach can provide useful information that could help the decision makers to choose the appropriate strategies in the perspective of improving road safety.
