隨著人們生活水平的提高，越來越多的人進入電影院欣賞電影，看電影已經成為人們娛樂生活中必不可少的一部分。大陸經濟發展帶動了電影產業的蓬勃發展。大陸已經躍居成為繼美國之後的第二大電影市場，如此龐大的電影市場，如若院線上映前能預測即將上映電影的趨勢，那麼對投資方將是非常有利的。
台灣電影市場與大陸電影市場相似，上映的電影較大陸會提前7-25天，如若能找出台灣票房與大陸票房之關聯，那麼針對大陸即將上映的電影院線可以做出不同的對策。
本研究運用資料探勘來研究電影票房的影響因素並加以預測。運用到的方法為關聯規則挖掘，首先找出台灣電影票房的影響因素，再探討台灣電影票房與大陸電影票房之關聯性，最後通過實驗，如果一部電影在台灣獲得高票房那麼在之後大陸上映時獲得高票房的概率較大。
