Chapter 8. Mining Stream, Time. Series, and Sequence Data Mining data streams Mining time-series data Mining sequence patterns in transactional databases Mining sequence patterns in biological data 20 March 2018 Data Mining: Concepts and Techniques 2
Sequence Databases & Sequential Patterns n Transaction databases, time-series databases vs. sequence databases n Frequent patterns vs. (frequent) sequential patterns n Applications of sequential pattern mining n Customer shopping sequences: n n First buy computer, then CD-ROM, and then digital camera, within 3 months. Medical treatments, natural disasters (e. g. , earthquakes), science & eng. processes, stocks and markets, etc. n Telephone calling patterns, Weblog click streams n DNA sequences and gene structures 20 March 2018 Data Mining: Concepts and Techniques 3
What Is Sequential Pattern Mining? n Given a set of sequences, find the complete set of frequent subsequences A sequence : < (ef) (ab) (df) c b > A sequence database SID 10 20 30 40 sequence <(ad)c(bc)(ae)> <(ef)(ab)(df)cb>
Challenges on Sequential Pattern Mining n n A huge number of possible sequential patterns are hidden in databases A mining algorithm should n n n 20 March 2018 find the complete set of patterns, when possible, satisfying the minimum support (frequency) threshold be highly efficient, scalable, involving only a small number of database scans be able to incorporate various kinds of user-specific constraints Data Mining: Concepts and Techniques 5

The Apriori Property of Sequential Patterns n A basic property: Apriori (Agrawal & Sirkant’ 94) n If a sequence S is not frequent n Then none of the super-sequences of S is frequent n E. g,
GSP—Generalized Sequential Pattern Mining n n n GSP (Generalized Sequential Pattern) mining algorithm n proposed by Agrawal and Srikant, EDBT’ 96 Outline of the method n Initially, every item in DB is a candidate of length-1 n for each level (i. e. , sequences of length-k) do n scan database to collect support count for each candidate sequence n generate candidate length-(k+1) sequences from length-k frequent sequences using Apriori n repeat until no frequent sequence or no candidate can be found Major strength: Candidate pruning by Apriori 20 March 2018 Data Mining: Concepts and Techniques 8
Finding Length-1 Sequential Patterns n n n Examine GSP using an example Initial candidates: all singleton sequences n , ,

Candidate Generate-and-test: Drawbacks n A huge set of candidate sequences generated. n n Especially 2 -item candidate sequence. Multiple Scans of database needed. n The length of each candidate grows by one at each database scan. n Inefficient for mining long sequential patterns. n A long pattern grow up from short patterns n The number of short patterns is exponential to the length of mined patterns. 20 March 2018 Data Mining: Concepts and Techniques 11
