Fuzzy rules, doubtlessly one of the most powerful tools of fuzzy logic, have not only been used successfully in established application areas like control engineering and approximate reasoning, but more recently also in the field of data mining. In this chapter, we provide a synthesis of different approaches to fuzzy association analysis, that is, the data-driven extraction of interesting patterns expressed in the form of fuzzy rules. In this regard, we highlight a specific advantage of a fuzzy in comparison to a conventional approach, namely an increased expressiveness that allows for representing patterns of interest in a more distinctive way. Therefore, we specifically focus on the modeling of a less common type of pattern, namely gradual dependencies between attributes in a data set.
