Abstract
Since transaction identifiers (ids) are unique and would not usually be frequent, mining frequent patterns with transaction ids, showing records they occurred in, provides an efficient way to mine frequent patterns in many types of databases including multiple tabled and distributed databases. Existing work have not focused on mining frequent patterns with the transaction ids they occurred in. Many applications require finding strong associations between transaction id (e.g., certain drug) and the itemsets (e.g., certain adverse effects) to help deduce some pertinent lacking information (like how many people use this product in total) and information (like how many people have the adverse effects).This paper proposes a set of algorithms TidFPs, for mining frequent patterns with their transaction ids in a single transaction database, in a multiple tabled database, and in a distributed database. The proposed technique scans the database records only once even with level-wise Apriori-based mining techniques, stores frequent 1-items with their transaction id bitmap, outperforms traditional approaches and is extendible to other tree-based mining techniques as well as sequential mining.
