Recently, frequent itemsets mining over data streams attracted much attention. However, mining closed itemsets from data stream has not been well addressed. The main difficulty lies in its high complexity of maintenance aroused by the exact model definition of closed itemsets and the dynamic changing of data streams. In data stream scenario, it is sufficient to mining only approximated frequent...

Mining frequent itemsets and association rules is a popular and well researched approach for discovering interesting relationships between variables in large databases. The R package arules presented in this paper provides a basic infrastructure for creating and manipulating input data sets and for analyzing the resulting itemsets and rules. The package also includes interfaces to two fast mini...

Discovering frequent itemsets is a key problem in important data mining applications, such as the discovery of association rules, strong rules, episodes, and minimal keys. Typical algorithms for solving this problem operate in a bottom-up, breadth-first search direction. The computation starts from frequent 1-itemsets (the minimum length frequent itemsets) and continues until all maximal (lengt...

Mining frequent itemsets is one of the main problems in data mining. Much effort went into developing efficient and scalable algorithms for this problem. When the support threshold is set too low, however, or the data is highly correlated, the number of frequent itemsets can become too large, independently of the algorithm used. Therefore, it is often more interesting to mine a reduced collecti...

The mining of frequent itemsets is often challenged by the length of the patterns mined and also by the number of transactions considered for the mining process. Another acute challenge that concerns the performance of any association rule mining algorithm is the presence of „null‟ transactions. This work proposes a closed frequent itemset mining algorithm viz., Closed Frequent Itemset Mining a...

The set of frequent closed itemsets determines exactly the complete set of all frequent itemsets and is usually much smaller than the latter. In this paper, an algorithm based on index array for mining frequent closed itemsets, Index-FCI is proposed. The vertical BitTable is adopted to compress the dataset for counting fast the support. To make use of the horizontal BitTable, the index array co...
