Abstract

Itemset mining discovers interesting patterns in the dataset. The itemset may be frequent or it can be rare based on its occurrence in the database. It has been observed that most of the algorithms are designed for mining frequent itemsets. However, discovery of rare itemsets is equally important since they play a major role in making decisions in some situations. The efficiency of the algorithms depend on the way in which the data structures are designed to store and retrieve the data. Hyperlinked Rare Pattern Mining algorithm discovers all rare itemsets and is suitable for sparse dataset. In this algorithm item_id and its support count are stored in Support and Header tables. This redundancy is removed in the proposed algorithm to improve the time efficiency. An experimental analysis is conducted to discover the rare itemsets. It is observed that while there is an improvement in time efficiency, there is a tradeoff for space efficiency.
