A pattern is considered useful if it can be used to help a person to achieve his goal. Mining data streams for useful patterns is important in many applications. However, data stre...
Discovering association rules that identify relationships among sets of items is an important problem in data mining. Finding frequent item sets is computationally the most expens...
Previous study has shown that mining frequent patterns with length-decreasing support constraint is very helpful in removing some uninteresting patterns based on the observation t...
Mining generator patterns has raised great research interest in recent years. The main purpose of mining itemset generators is that they can form equivalence classes together with...
Tree pattern queries (TPQs) provide a natural and easy formalism to query tree-structured XML data, and the efficient processing of such queries has attracted a lot of attention. ...
