On dualization in products of forests, in

Abstract. Let P = P1 ×...×Pn be the product of n partially ordered sets, each with an acyclic precedence graph in which either the in-degree or the out-degree of each element is bounded. Given a subset A⊆P,it is shown that the set of maximal independent elements of A in P can be incrementally generated in quasi-polynomial time. We discuss some applications in data mining related to this dualization problem

Mining frequent itemsets a perspective from operations research

Many papers on frequent itemsets have been published. Besides somecontests in this field were held. In the majority of the papers the focus ison speed. Ad hoc algorithms and datastructures were introduced. Inthis paper we put most of the algorithms in one framework, usingclassical Operations Research paradigms such as backtracking, depth-first andbreadth-first search, and branch-and-bound. Moreover we presentexperimental results where the different algorithms are implementedunder similar designs.data mining;operation research;Frequent itemsets
