Return to Data Mining - Association Rules and Decision Trees

Abstract
We present a novel algorithm to compute large itemsets online. The user is free to change the support threshold any time during the first scan of the transaction sequence. The algorithm maintains a superset of all large itemsets and for each itemset a shrinking, deterministic interval on its support. After at most 2 scans the algorithm terminates with the precise support for each large itemset. Typically our algorithm is by an order of magnitude more memory efficient than Apriori or DIC.
