Survey On Moving Towards Frequent Pattern Growth for Infrequent Weighted Itemset Mining

In data mining and knowledge discovery technique domain, frequent pattern mining plays an important role but it does not consider different weight value of the items. Association Rule Mining is to find the correlation between data. The frequent itemsets are patterns or items like itemsets, substructures, or subsequences that come out in a data set frequently or continuously. In this paper we are presenting survey of various frequent pattern mining and weighted itemset mining. Different articles related to frequent and weighted infrequent itemset mining were proposed. This paper focus on survey of various Existing Algorithms related to frequent and infrequent itemset mining which creates a path for future researches in the field of Association Rule Mining

Analysis study on R-Eclat algorithm in infrequent itemsets mining

There are rising interests in developing techniques for data mining. One of the important subfield in data mining is itemset mining, which consists of discovering appealing and useful patterns in transaction databases. In a big data environment, the problem of mining infrequent itemsets becomes more complicated when dealing with a huge dataset. Infrequent itemsets mining may provide valuable information in the knowledge mining process. The current basic algorithms that widely implemented in infrequent itemset mining are derived from Apriori and FP-Growth. The use of Eclat-based in infrequent itemset mining has not yet been extensively exploited. This paper addresses the discovery of infrequent itemsets mining from the transactional database based on Eclat algorithm. To address this issue, the minimum support measure is defined as a weighted frequency of occurrence of an itemsets in the analysed data. Preliminary experimental results illustrate that Eclat-based algorithm is more efficient in mining dense data as compared to sparse data

A novel fast algorithm for finding quasi identifiers in large datasets is presented. Performance measurements on a broad range of datasets demonstrate substantial reductions in run-time relative to the state of the art and the scalability of the algorithm to realistically-sized datasets up to several million records

An Approach of Data Mining Techniques Using Firewall Detection for Security and Event Management System

Security is one of the most important issues to force a lot of research and development effort in last decades. We are introduced a mining technique like firewall detection and frequent item set selection to enhance the system security in event management system. In addition, we are increasing the deduction techniques we have try to overcome attackers in data mining rules using our SIEM project. In proposed work to leverages to significantly improve attack detection and mitigate attack consequences. And also we proposed approach in an advanced decision-making system that supports domain expert’s targeted events based on the individuality of the exposed IWIs. Furthermore, the application of different aggregation functions besides minimum and maximum of the item sets. Frequent and infrequent weighted item sets represent correlations frequently holding the data in which items may weight differently. However, we need is discovering the rare or frequent data correlations, cost function would get minimized using data mining techniques. There are many issues discovering rare data like processing the larger data, it takes more for process. Not applicable to discovering data like minimum of certain values. We need to handle the issue of discovering rare and weighted item sets, the frequent weighted itemset (WI) mining problem. Two novel quality measures are proposed to drive the WI mining process and Minimal WI mining efficiently in SIEM system

Pattern mining under different conditions

New requirements and demands on pattern mining arise in modern applications, which cannot be fulfilled using conventional methods. For example, in scientific research, scientists are more interested in unknown knowledge, which usually hides in significant but not frequent patterns. However, existing itemset mining algorithms are designed for very frequent patterns. Furthermore, scientists need to repeat an experiment many times to ensure reproducibility. A series of datasets are generated at once, waiting for clustering, which can contain an unknown number of clusters with various densities and shapes. Using existing clustering algorithms is time-consuming because parameter tuning is necessary for each dataset. Many scientific datasets are extremely noisy. They contain considerably more noises than in-cluster data points. Most existing clustering algorithms can only handle noises up to a moderate level. Temporal pattern mining is also important in scientific research. Existing temporal pattern mining algorithms only consider pointbased events. However, most activities in the real-world are interval-based with a starting and an ending timestamp. This thesis developed novel pattern mining algorithms for various data mining tasks under different conditions. The first part of this thesis investigates the problem of mining less frequent itemsets in transactional datasets. In contrast to existing frequent itemset mining algorithms, this part focus on itemsets that occurred not that frequent. Algorithms NIIMiner, RaCloMiner, and LSCMiner are proposed to identify such kind of itemsets efficiently. NIIMiner utilizes the negative itemset tree to extract all patterns that occurred less than a given support threshold in a top-down depth-first manner. RaCloMiner combines existing bottom-up frequent itemset mining algorithms with a top-down itemset mining algorithm to achieve a better performance in mining less frequent patterns. LSCMiner investigates the problem of mining less frequent closed patterns. The second part of this thesis studied the problem of interval-based temporal pattern mining in the stream environment. Interval-based temporal patterns are sequential patterns in which each event is aligned with a starting and ending temporal information. The ability to handle interval-based events and stream data is lacking in existing approaches. A novel intervalbased temporal pattern mining algorithm for stream data is described in this part. The last part of this thesis studies new problems in clustering on numeric datasets. The first problem tackled in this part is shape alternation adaptivity in clustering. In applications such as scientific data analysis, scientists need to deal with a series of datasets generated from one experiment. Cluster sizes and shapes are different in those datasets. A kNN density-based clustering algorithm, kadaClus, is proposed to provide the shape alternation adaptability so that users do not need to tune parameters for each dataset. The second problem studied in this part is clustering in an extremely noisy dataset. Many real-world datasets contain considerably more noises than in-cluster data points. A novel clustering algorithm, kenClus, is proposed to identify clusters in arbitrary shapes from extremely noisy datasets. Both clustering algorithms are kNN-based, which only require one parameter k. In each part, the efficiency and effectiveness of the presented techniques are thoroughly analyzed. Intensive experiments on synthetic and real-world datasets are conducted to show the benefits of the proposed algorithms over conventional approaches

Infrequent Weighted Itemset Mining Using Frequent Pattern Growth

Frequent weighted itemsets represent correlations frequently holding in data in which items may weight differently. However, in some contexts, e.g., when the need is to minimize a certain cost function, discovering rare data correlations is more interesting than mining frequent ones. This paper tackles the issue of discovering rare and weighted itemsets, i.e., the infrequent weighted itemset (IWI) mining problem. Two novel quality measures are proposed to drive the IWI mining process. Furthermore, two algorithms that perform IWI and Minimal IWI mining efficiently, driven by the proposed measures, are presented. Experimental results show efficiency and effectiveness of the proposed approach

DISCOVERING RARE DATA CORRELATIONS FOR DIGGING BULK ITEMS

Within the contexts of information center resource management and application profiling, transactions may represent CPU usage readings collected in a fixed sampling rate. Frequent weighted item sets represent correlations frequently holding in data by which products may weight differently. However, in certain contexts, e.g., once they require is to reduce a particular cost function, finding rare data correlations is much more interesting than mining frequent ones. In addition, two algorithms that perform IWI and Minimal IWI mining efficiently, driven through the suggested measures, are presented. Experimental results show effectiveness and efficiency from the suggested approach. This paper tackles the problem of finding rare and weighted item sets, i.e., the infrequent weighted item set (IWI) mining problem. Two novel quality measures are suggested they are driving the IWI mining process. Thinking about minimal IWIs enables the expert to concentrate her/his attention around the tiniest CPU sets which contain a minimum of one underutilized/idle CPU and, thus, cuts down on the bias because of the possible inclusion of highly weighted products within the extracted patterns

Searching and mining in enriched geo-spatial data

The emergence of new data collection mechanisms in geo-spatial applications paired with a heightened tendency of users to volunteer information provides an ever-increasing flow of data of high volume, complex nature, and often associated with inherent uncertainty. Such mechanisms include crowdsourcing, automated knowledge inference, tracking, and social media data repositories. Such data bearing additional information from multiple sources like probability distributions, text or numerical attributes, social context, or multimedia content can be called multi-enriched. Searching and mining this abundance of information holds many challenges, if all of the data's potential is to be released. This thesis addresses several major issues arising in that field, namely path queries using multi-enriched data, trend mining in social media data, and handling uncertainty in geo-spatial data. In all cases, the developed methods have made significant contributions and have appeared in or were accepted into various renowned international peer-reviewed venues. A common use of geo-spatial data is path queries in road networks where traditional methods optimise results based on absolute and ofttimes singular metrics, i.e., finding the shortest paths based on distance or the best trade-off between distance and travel time. Integrating additional aspects like qualitative or social data by enriching the data model with knowledge derived from sources as mentioned above allows for queries that can be issued to fit a broader scope of needs or preferences. This thesis presents two implementations of incorporating multi-enriched data into road networks. In one case, a range of qualitative data sources is evaluated to gain knowledge about user preferences which is subsequently matched with locations represented in a road network and integrated into its components. Several methods are presented for highly customisable path queries that incorporate a wide spectrum of data. In a second case, a framework is described for resource distribution with reappearance in road networks to serve one or more clients, resulting in paths that provide maximum gain based on a probabilistic evaluation of available resources. Applications for this include finding parking spots. Social media trends are an emerging research area giving insight in user sentiment and important topics. Such trends consist of bursts of messages concerning a certain topic within a time frame, significantly deviating from the average appearance frequency of the same topic. By investigating the dissemination of such trends in space and time, this thesis presents methods to classify trend archetypes to predict future dissemination of a trend. Processing and querying uncertain data is particularly demanding given the additional knowledge required to yield results with probabilistic guarantees. Since such knowledge is not always available and queries are not easily scaled to larger datasets due to the #P-complete nature of the problem, many existing approaches reduce the data to a deterministic representation of its underlying model to eliminate uncertainty. However, data uncertainty can also provide valuable insight into the nature of the data that cannot be represented in a deterministic manner. This thesis presents techniques for clustering uncertain data as well as query processing, that take the additional information from uncertainty models into account while preserving scalability using a sampling-based approach, while previous approaches could only provide one of the two. The given solutions enable the application of various existing clustering techniques or query types to a framework that manages the uncertainty.Das Erscheinen neuer Methoden zur Datenerhebung in räumlichen Applikationen gepaart mit einer erhöhten Bereitschaft der Nutzer, Daten über sich preiszugeben, generiert einen stetig steigenden Fluss von Daten in großer Menge, komplexer Natur, und oft gepaart mit inhärenter Unsicherheit. Beispiele für solche Mechanismen sind Crowdsourcing, automatisierte Wissensinferenz, Tracking, und Daten aus sozialen Medien. Derartige Daten, angereichert mit mit zusätzlichen Informationen aus verschiedenen Quellen wie Wahrscheinlichkeitsverteilungen, Text- oder numerische Attribute, sozialem Kontext, oder Multimediainhalten, werden als multi-enriched bezeichnet. Suche und Datamining in dieser weiten Datenmenge hält viele Herausforderungen bereit, wenn das gesamte Potenzial der Daten genutzt werden soll. Diese Arbeit geht auf mehrere große Fragestellungen in diesem Feld ein, insbesondere Pfadanfragen in multi-enriched Daten, Trend-mining in Daten aus sozialen Netzwerken, und die Beherrschung von Unsicherheit in räumlichen Daten. In all diesen Fällen haben die entwickelten Methoden signifikante Forschungsbeiträge geleistet und wurden veröffentlicht oder angenommen zu diversen renommierten internationalen, von Experten begutachteten Konferenzen und Journals. Ein gängiges Anwendungsgebiet räumlicher Daten sind Pfadanfragen in Straßennetzwerken, wo traditionelle Methoden die Resultate anhand absoluter und oft auch singulärer Maße optimieren, d.h., der kürzeste Pfad in Bezug auf die Distanz oder der beste Kompromiss zwischen Distanz und Reisezeit. Durch die Integration zusätzlicher Aspekte wie qualitativer Daten oder Daten aus sozialen Netzwerken als Anreicherung des Datenmodells mit aus diesen Quellen abgeleitetem Wissen werden Anfragen möglich, die ein breiteres Spektrum an Anforderungen oder Präferenzen erfüllen. Diese Arbeit präsentiert zwei Ansätze, solche multi-enriched Daten in Straßennetze einzufügen. Zum einen wird eine Reihe qualitativer Datenquellen ausgewertet, um Wissen über Nutzerpräferenzen zu generieren, welches darauf mit Örtlichkeiten im Straßennetz abgeglichen und in das Netz integriert wird. Diverse Methoden werden präsentiert, die stark personalisierbare Pfadanfragen ermöglichen, die ein weites Spektrum an Daten mit einbeziehen. Im zweiten Fall wird ein Framework präsentiert, das eine Ressourcenverteilung im Straßennetzwerk modelliert, bei der einmal verbrauchte Ressourcen erneut auftauchen können. Resultierende Pfade ergeben einen maximalen Ertrag basieren auf einer probabilistischen Evaluation der verfügbaren Ressourcen. Eine Anwendung ist die Suche nach Parkplätzen. Trends in sozialen Medien sind ein entstehendes Forscchungsgebiet, das Einblicke in Benutzerverhalten und wichtige Themen zulässt. Solche Trends bestehen aus großen Mengen an Nachrichten zu einem bestimmten Thema innerhalb eines Zeitfensters, so dass die Auftrittsfrequenz signifikant über den durchschnittlichen Level liegt. Durch die Untersuchung der Fortpflanzung solcher Trends in Raum und Zeit präsentiert diese Arbeit Methoden, um Trends nach Archetypen zu klassifizieren und ihren zukünftigen Weg vorherzusagen. Die Anfragebearbeitung und Datamining in unsicheren Daten ist besonders herausfordernd, insbesondere im Hinblick auf das notwendige Zusatzwissen, um Resultate mit probabilistischen Garantien zu erzielen. Solches Wissen ist nicht immer verfügbar und Anfragen lassen sich aufgrund der \P-Vollständigkeit des Problems nicht ohne Weiteres auf größere Datensätze skalieren. Dennoch kann Datenunsicherheit wertvollen Einblick in die Struktur der Daten liefern, der mit deterministischen Methoden nicht erreichbar wäre. Diese Arbeit präsentiert Techniken zum Clustering unsicherer Daten sowie zur Anfragebearbeitung, die die Zusatzinformation aus dem Unsicherheitsmodell in Betracht ziehen, jedoch gleichzeitig die Skalierbarkeit des Ansatzes auf große Datenmengen sicherstellen
