Breast cancer, a type of malignant tumor, affects women more than men. About one-third of women with breast cancer die of this disease. Hence, it is imperative to find a tool for the proper identification and early treatment of breast cancer. Unlike the conventional data mining algorithms, fuzzy logic-based approaches help in the mining of association rules from quantitative transactions. In this study, a novel fuzzy methodology, IFFP (improved fuzzy frequent pattern mining), based on a fuzzy association rule mining for biological knowledge extraction, is introduced to analyze the dataset in order to find the core factors that cause breast cancer. It is determined that the factor, mitoses, has low range of values on both malignant and benign, and hence it does not contribute to the detection of breast cancer. On the other hand, the high range of bare nuclei shows more chances for the presence of breast cancer. Experimental evaluations on real datasets show that the proposed method outperforms recently proposed state-of-the-art algorithms in terms of runtime and memory usage.

Time series data is of interest to most science and engineering disciplines and analysis techniques have been developed for hundreds of years. There have, however, in recent years been new developments in data mining techniques, such as frequent pattern mining, that take a different perspective of data. Traditional techniques were not meant for such pattern-oriented approaches. There is, as a result, a significant need for research that extends traditional time-series analysis, in particular clustering, to the requirements of the new data mining algorithms.

Frequent itemsets mining is an important data mining task and a focused theme in data mining research. Apriori algorithm is one of the most important algorithm of mining frequent itemsets. However, the Apriori algorithm scans the database too many times, so its efficiency is relatively low. The paper has therefore conducted a research on the mining frequent itemsets algorithm based on a across linker. Through comparing with the classical algorithm, the improved algorithm has obvious advantages.

Frequent pattern mining is a classic data mining technique, generally applicable to a wide range of application domains, and a mature area of research. The fundamental challenge arises from the combinatorial nature of frequent itemsets, scaling exponentially with respect to the number of unique items. Apriori-based and FPTree-based algorithms have dominated the space thus far. Initial phases of this research relied on the Apriori algorithm and utilized a distributed computing environment; we proposed the Cartesian Scheduler to manage Apriori's candidate generation process. To address the limitation of bottom-up frequent pattern mining algorithms such as Apriori and FPGrowth, we propose the Frequent Hierarchical Pattern Tree (FHPTree): a tree structure and new frequent pattern mining paradigm. The classic problem is redefined as frequent hierarchical pattern mining where the goal is to detect frequent maximal pattern covers. Under the proposed paradigm, compressed representations of maximal patterns are mined using a top-down FHPTree traversal, FHPGrowth, which detects large patterns before their subsets, thus yielding significant reductions in computation time. The FHPTree memory footprint is small; the number of nodes in the structure scales linearly with respect to the number of unique items. Additionally, the FHPTree serves as a persistent, dynamic data structure to index frequent patterns and enable efficient searches. When the search space is exponential, efficient targeted mining capabilities are paramount; this is one of the key contributions of the FHPTree. This dissertation will demonstrate the performance of FHPGrowth, achieving a 300x speed up over state-of-the-art maximal pattern mining algorithms and approximately a 2400x speedup when utilizing FHPGrowth in a distributed computing environment. In addition, we allude to future research opportunities, and suggest various modifications to further optimize the FHPTree and FHPGrowth. Moreover, the methods we offer will have an impact on other data mining research areas including contrast set mining as well as spatial and temporal mining.
