Mining Association Rules from Stream
Posted by: Cassio
Date: December 10, 2012 05:57AM

Hi,

I need to implement an algorithm to mine Association Rules from streams (with some adaptation to run distributed).

I intent to use the Itemset-Tree from Kubat as a reference. Does anyone have a suggestion about other algorithms for this purpose, or is Kubat efficient enough compared to others?

Any reference is welcome!

Hi Cassio,

Welcome to the forum.

The itemset-tree from Kubat is suitable for an incremental database where new transactions appears. However, i'm not sure that it would be suitable for a stream. Usually, for a stream, we suppose that the stream can be infinite. Perhaps that the itemset-tree would become too large.

Maybe you should look for an algorithm that is specialized for streams such as this one:

"On-line generation association rules over data streams"
http://dl.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=1355092

But I don't have source code for this algorithm.

Merci Philippe.

Maybe I misinterpreted the word. By stream I meant "continuous flow of new transactions", in which a new transaction is finite.

I'll try to implement their algorithm and compare with the one from Kubat. If everything goes ok, I can release it to SPMF eventually smiling smiley

Don't hesitate to post more references to this thread if you find something!

Best,
Cassio

Hi Cassio,


Ok.

Yes, if you want to release the source code in SPMF eventually, just let me know. It would be great. I would put your name in the contributors' list and give you credit on the website. ;-)

Best,

Philippe
