Abstract
Frequent itemset mining is one of the most important data mining tasks. Classical frequent itemset mining algorithms need to store data in a centralized way and run in a batch way, which cannot meet the requirements of fast updating big data mining. In this paper, we propose a distributed incremental frequent itemset mining algorithm, DisCANTree, which uses CANTree to store the conditional database, achieves the load balance between nodes by grouping all items, updates the new transaction to the existing CANTree to avoid the load of tree reconstruction, and uses the efficient FPGrowth algorithm to mine CANTree to generate frequent itemsets. The popular distributed programming model MapReduce and its open source system Hadoop are used to implement the DisCANTree algorithm. The experimental results show that the DisCANTree algorithm has more advantages than the most popular PFP algorithm in performance as well as the number of transferred records between nodes, and especially suits for the fast updating sparse big data.
