In this paper we present a new approach to mining binary data. We treat each binary feature (item) as a means of distinguishing two sets of examples. Our interest is in selecting ...
The problem of closed frequent itemset discovery is a fundamental problem of data mining, having applications in numerous domains. It is thus very important to have efficient par...
In this paper, we consider a novel scheme referred to as Cartesian contour to concisely represent the collection of frequent itemsets. Different from the existing works, this sche...
