Abstract

Frequent Itemsets (FI) Mining is one of the most researched areas of data mining. When some new transactions are appended, deleted or modified in a dataset, updating FI is a nontrivial task since such updates may invalidate existing FI or introduce new ones. In this paper a novel algorithm suitable for FI mining in dynamic datasets named Incremental Compressed Arrays is presented. In the experiments, our algorithm was compared against some algorithms as Eclat, PatriciaMine and FP-growth when new transactions are added or deleted.
