Study Notes

Frequent Pattern Mining

  • Frequent Pattern: A frequent pattern is a pattern that appears frequently in a dataset, exceeding a certain threshold (minimum support).

  • Frequent Itemset: An example of a frequent itemset is a set of items that are frequently purchased together, such as milk and bread.

  • Frequent Pattern Mining: Frequent pattern mining involves discovering patterns, such as itemsets, subsequences, or substructures, that appear frequently in a dataset.

  • Applications: Frequent pattern mining has applications in various fields, including:

    • Market basket analysis
    • Recommendation systems
    • Fraud detection
    • Bioinformatics
    • Web usage mining
  • Goal: The goal of frequent pattern mining is to identify patterns that are significant, useful, and meaningful, which can be used to make informed decisions.

  • Support: In frequent pattern mining, 'support' refers to the frequency of a pattern in the dataset, usually measured as a percentage of the total transactions.

  • Frequent Sequential Pattern: A frequent sequential pattern is a pattern that describes a sequence of events or items that occur frequently in a dataset, such as a sequence of Web page visits.
