This work proposes an intelligent grey-wolf-optimizer-improved Apriori algorithm (GWO-Apriori) to mine the association rules of hidden dangers in hydrogen pipeline transmission stations. The optimal minimum support and minimum confidence are determined by GWO instead of the time-consuming trial approach. Experiments show that the average support and average confidence of association rules using GWO-Apriori increase by 29.8% and 21.3%, respectively, when compared with traditional Apriori. Overall, 59 ineffective association rules out of the total 105 rules are filtered by GWO, which dramatically improves data mining effectiveness. Moreover, 23 illogical association rules are excluded, and 12 new strong association rules ignored by the traditional Apriori are successfully mined. Compared with the inefficient and labor-intensive manual investigation, the intelligent GWO-Apriori algorithm dramatically improves pertinency and efficiency of hidden danger identification in hydrogen pipeline transmission stations.
