Finding frequent fuzzy itemsets in operational quantitative databases is a significant challenge for association rule mining the context of data mining. If are detected, decision-making process and formulating strategies businesses will be made more precise. Because characteristic these models large number transactions unlimited high-speed productions. This leads to limitations calculating supp...

Data mining is an essential part of knowledge discovery, and performs the extraction of useful information from a collection of data, so as to assist human beings in making necessary decisions. This thesis describes research in the field of itemset mining, which performs the extraction of a set of items that occur together in a dataset, based on a user specified threshold. Recent focus of items...

Frequent itemset mining is an essential part of data analysis and data mining. Recent works propose interesting SAT-based encodings for the problem of discovering frequent itemsets. Our aim in this work is to define strategies for adapting SAT solvers to such encodings in order to improve models enumeration. In this context, we deeply study the effects of restart, branching heuristics and claus...

We propose a new algorithm for searching frequent itemsets in large data bases. The idea is to start searching from a set of representative examples instead of testing the 1-itemset,the k-itemset and so on. A clustering algorithm is firstly applied in order to cluster the transactions into k clusters. The set of the k representative examples will be used as the starting point for searching freq...

finding frequent patterns plays a key role in exploring association patterns, correlation, and many other interesting relationships that are applicable in tdb. several association rule mining algorithms such as apriori, fp-growth, and eclat have been proposed in the literature. fp-growth algorithm construct a tree structure from transaction database and recursively traverse this tree to extract...

The class of frequent hypergraph mining problems is introduced which includes the frequent graph mining problem class and contains also the frequent itemset mining problem. We study the computational properties of different problems belonging to this class. In particular, besides negative results, we present practically relevant problems that can be solved in incremental-polynomial time. Some o...

A pattern is of utility to a person if its use by that person contributes to reaching a goal. Utility based measures use the utilities of the patterns to reflect the user’s goals. In this paper, we first review utility based measures for itemset mining. Then, we present a unified framework for incorporating several utility based measures into the data mining process by defining a unified utilit...
