  1. Support gives the proportion of tubules in which a given itemset occurs and confidence is a measure of how often a rule applies within the population of tubules for which the antecedent is true. Lift is a measure of how much more likely the consequent is to occur along with the antecedent than on its own, considering all tubules (see “Methods”). Rules which are related are grouped together. The last row relates to both groups 1 and 3.
