Hi all, this is to announce that a new textbook in Thai has been published about pattern mining, which includes many examples using the SPMF software. The textbook named “Pattern Mining: Theory and Practice” is written by teacher Panida Songram … Continue reading
In this blog post, I will share another talk that I have recorded recently. This time, I will explain a new paper from my team about discovering cost-effective patterns using some algorithms called CEPB and CEPN. Mining cost-effective patterns is … Continue reading
Today, I will share a short keynote talk (28 min) about discovering interpretable high utility patterns in data that I have presented at the CCNS 2020 conference. This talk gives an overview of techniques for finding interesting and useful patterns … Continue reading
Today, I present a video about finding stable periodic patterns in data, and discuss a new algorithm named SPP-Growth for this task. The SPP-Growth algorithm and datasets for evaluating its performance are available in the SPMF software, which is open-source and programmed in … Continue reading
This year, we are in 2019, and it is already 25 years since Agrawal wrote his seminal papers on frequent itemset mining and association rule mining in 1994. Since then, there has been thousands of papers published on this topic, … Continue reading
This is a video presentation of the Apriori algorithm for discovering frequent itemsets in data. Frequent itemset mining is one of the most popular data mining task. The Java source code of the Apriori algorithm and datasets for evaluating … Continue reading
This is a video presentation of the paper “Mining Partially-Ordered Sequential Rules Common to Multiple Sequences” about discovering sequential rules in sequences using the RuleGrowth algorithm. More information about the RuleGrowth algorithm are provided in this research paper: Fournier-Viger, P., Wu, C.-W., Tseng, … Continue reading
Rankings are made in many fields, as we naturally tend to rank objects, persons or things, in different contexts. For example, in a singing or a sport competition, some judges will rank participants from worst to best and give prizes … Continue reading
This is a video presentation of the paper “Mining Minimal High Utility Itemsets” about high utility itemset mining using MinFHM. It is the first video of a series of videos that will explain various data mining algorithms. (link to download … Continue reading
I am happy to announce that the draft of the book about high utility pattern mining has been finalized and submitted to the publisher (Springer). It should thus be published in the very near future. The book contains 12 chapters written … Continue reading
