Abstract

Pattern mining in large databases is the fundamental and a non-trivial task in data mining. Most of the current research focuses on frequently occurring patterns, even though less frequently/rarely occurring patterns benefit us with useful information in many real-time applications (e.g., in medical diagnosis, genetics). In this paper, we propose a novel algorithm for mining rare itemsets using recursive elimination (RELIM)-based method. Simulation results indicate that our approach performs efficiently than existing solution in time taken to mine the rare itemsets.
