What is the formula for calculating the support of X → Y?
What is the formula for calculating the support of X → Y?
- $Support(X \rightarrow Y) = \frac{X \cup Y}{X}$
- $Support(X \rightarrow Y) = \frac{X \cap Y}{X}$
- $Support(X \rightarrow Y) = \frac{X \cap Y}{D}$
- $Support(X \rightarrow Y) = \frac{X \cup Y}{D}$ (correct)
