Parallel Mining Of Association Rules Using A Lattice Based Approach, Wessel Morant Thomas
Parallel Mining Of Association Rules Using A Lattice Based Approach, Wessel Morant Thomas
CCE Theses and Dissertations
The discovery of interesting patterns from database transactions is one of the major problems in knowledge discovery in database. One such interesting pattern is the association rules extracted from these transactions. Parallel algorithms are required for the mining of association rules due to the very large databases used to store the transactions. In this paper we present a parallel algorithm for the mining of association rules. We implemented a parallel algorithm that used a lattice approach for mining association rules. The Dynamic Distributed Rule Mining (DDRM) is a lattice-based algorithm that partitions the lattice into sublattices to be assigned to …
