Research and application on Web information retrieval based on improved FP-growth algorithm

Abstract

A kind of single linked lists named aggregative chain is introduced to the algorithm, thus improving the architecture of FP tree. The new FP tree is a one-way tree and only the pointers that point its parent at each node are kept. Route information of different nodes in a same item are compressed into aggregative chains so that the frequent patterns will be produced in aggregative chains without generating node links and conditional pattern bases. An example of Web key words retrieval is given to analyze and verify the frequent pattern algorithm in this paper.
