Exploiting the Duality of Maximal Frequent Itemsets and Minimal Infrequent Itemsets for I/O Efficient Association Rule Mining
Any algorithm for mining association rules must discover the set of all maximal frequent itemsets (maxL) from a database. Given a set of itemsets X, to verify that X is maxL, two conditions must be checked: (1) a...
