Today, I will talk about some features of the upcoming version of SPMF 2.63 that I am working on and is planned for release next month.
Improved Pattern Visualizer window
The first feature is an improvement of the Pattern Viewer tool so that it can display the richer SPMF format where items have names (strings) in patterns. Previously, a pattern file like this:
@ITEM=1=apple
@ITEM=2=orange
@ITEM=3=tomato
@ITEM=4=milk
@ITEM=5=bread
1 2 4 5
2 3 5
1 2 4 5
1 2 3 5
1 2 3 4 5
2 3 4
would be displayed as this by the Pattern Viewer:
Now, it is displayed as:
Other pattern visualizations
I am also working on adding other tools for visualization such as a Rule Viewer to visualize association rules and sequential rules like this:
The above screenshot is an early version. I will improve the appearance of this window and I still have to think about how to best integrate it in the software.
Today, I just wanted to show you some ideas of new features. If you have any ideas or comments, send me an e-mail or leave a comment below!
