Abstract

Data mining for traversal patterns has been found useful in several applications. Traditional model of traversal patterns mining only considered un-weighted traversals. In this paper, a transformable model of EWDG(Edge-Weighted Directed Graph) andVWDG(Vertex-Weighted Directed Graph) is proposed. Based on the model and the notion of support bound, a new algorithm, called WTPMiner(Weighted Traversal Patterns Miner), and two methods for the estimations of algorithm are developed to discover weighted frequent patterns from the traversals on graph. Experimental results show the effect of different estimation method of support bound.
