Abstract

We present an algorithm for mining sequential rules common to several sequences, such that rules have to appear within a maximum time span. Experimental results with real-life datasets show that the algorithm can reduce the execution time, memory usage and the number of rules generated by several orders of magnitude compared to previous algorithms.
