Accelerating Closed Frequent Itemset Mining by Elimination of Null Transactions

Author	Binesh Nair, Amiya Kumar Tripathy
ISSN	2079-8407
On Pages	317-324
Volume No.	2
Issue No.	7
Issue Date	July 01, 2011
Publishing Date	July 01, 2011
Keywords	Data Mining, Frequent Pattern Growth (FP) tree, Frequent Itemsets, Closed Itemsets, Frequent Patterns

Abstract

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...
