Previous studies have presented convincing arguments that a frequent pattern mining algorithm should not mine all frequent patterns but only the closed ones because the latter lea...
The classic Generalized Sequential Patterns (GSP) algorithm returns all frequent sequences present in a database. However, usually a few ones are interesting from a user's po...
Mining sequential patterns in large databases is an important research topic. The main challenge of mining sequential patterns is the high processing cost due to the large amount ...
A Transaction database contains a set of transactions along with items and their associated timestamps. Transitional patterns are the patterns which specify the dynamic behavior o...
Mining frequent patterns in databases is a fundamental and essential problem in data mining research. A continuity is a kind of causal relationship which describes a definite temp...
