48 results for sequential pattern mining

Recent sequential pattern mining methods have used the minimum description length (MDL) principle to define an encoding scheme which describes an algorithm for mining the most compressing patterns in a database. We present a novel subsequence interleaving model based on a probabilistic model of the sequence database, w…

A new framework for mining high utility patterns in interval-based sequences.

problem Mining patterns in events that persist over varying time intervals and considering event utility.
method Integrates utility into interval-based sequences and proposes HUIPMiner algorithm with pruning strategy.
result HUIPMiner efficiently finds high utility patterns in real datasets.

This paper presents a framework for exact discovery of the top-k sequential patterns under Leverage. It combines (1) a novel definition of the expected support for a sequential pattern - a concept on which most interestingness measures directly rely - with (2) SkOPUS: a new branch-and-bound algorithm for the exact disc…

FSR efficiently discovers significant patterns with few resampled datasets.

problem Mining significant patterns in transactional data, especially subgroups.
method FSR uses resampling to bound the supremum deviation of quality statistics, providing rigorous guarantees on false discoveries.
result FSR effectively discovers significant subgroups with a small number of resampled datasets.

In this paper, we investigate the multi-variate sequence classification problem from a multi-instance learning perspective. Real-world sequential data commonly show discriminative patterns only at specific time periods. For instance, we can identify a cropland during its growing season, but it looks similar to a barren…

Significant pattern mining, the problem of finding itemsets that are significantly enriched in one class of objects, is statistically challenging, as the large space of candidate patterns leads to an enormous multiple testing problem. Recently, the concept of testability was proposed as one approach to correct for mult…

MCRapper efficiently computes patterns in data using Monte-Carlo Rademacher Averages.

problem Finding statistically significant patterns in data with limited samples.
method Monte-Carlo Empirical Rademacher Averages (MCERA) for poset families.
result MCRapper provides upper bounds to the discrepancy of functions, enabling efficient pattern mining.

The problem of frequent pattern mining has been studied quite extensively for various types of data, including sets, sequences, and graphs. Somewhat surprisingly, another important type of data, namely rank data, has received very little attention in data mining so far. In this paper, we therefore addresses the problem…

Randomization helps verify if data mining results are due to inherent patterns.

problem Verify if data mining results are due to inherent patterns or coincidental findings.
method Metropolis sampling based on local swaps to randomize data while preserving discovered patterns.
result Randomized data often reveals that clustering results imply frequent pattern discovery.

Pattern sampling has been proposed as a potential solution to the infamous pattern explosion. Instead of enumerating all patterns that satisfy the constraints, individual patterns are sampled proportional to a given quality measure. Several sampling algorithms have been proposed, but each of them has its limitations wh…
