DIAFM: An Improved and Novel Approach for Incremental Frequent Itemset Mining

Traditional approaches to data mining are generally designed for small, centralized, and static datasets. However, when a dataset grows at an enormous rate, the algorithms become infeasible in terms of huge consumption of computational and I/O resources. Frequent itemset mining (FIM) is one of the key algorithms in data mining and finds applications in a variety of domains; however, traditional algorithms do face problems in efficiently processing large and dynamic datasets. This research introduces a distributed incremental approximation frequent itemset mining (DIAFM) algorithm that tackles the mentioned challenges using shard-based approximation within the MapReduce framework. DIAFM minimizes the computational overhead of a program by reducing dataset scans, bypassing exact support checks, and incorporating shard-level error thresholds for an appropriate trade-off between efficiency and accuracy. Extensive experiments have demonstrated that DIAFM reduces runtime by 40–60% compared to traditional methods with losses in accuracy within 1–5%, even for datasets over 500,000 transactions. Its incremental nature ensures that new data increments are handled efficiently without needing to reprocess the entire dataset, making it particularly suitable for real-time, large-scale applications such as transaction analysis and IoT data streams. These results demonstrate the scalability, robustness, and practical applicability of DIAFM and establish it as a competitive and efficient solution for mining frequent itemsets in distributed, dynamic environments.

Development of age-specific population-based paediatric computational phantoms for image-based data mining and other radiotherapy applications

Objective.Computational anatomical models have many applications in paediatric radiotherapy. Age-specific computational anatomical models were historically developed to represent average and/or healthy individuals, where cancer patients may present with anatomical variations caused by the disease and/or treatment effects. We developed RT-PAL, a library of computational age-specific voxelized anatomical models tailored to represent the paediatric radiotherapy population.Approach.Data from patients undergoing craniospinal irradiation (CSI) were used (n = 74, median age 7.3y, range: 1-17y). The RT-PAL phantoms were generated using groupwise deformable image registration to spatially normalize and average a sub-set of twenty clinical CTs and contours (n = 74, median age 7.7y, range: 3-14 y). To assess their anatomical and age-dependency plausibility, the RT-PAL models were compared against clinical cancer patient data and two healthy population based libraries of phantoms: the International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP) pediatric reference computational phantoms (n = 8, median age 7.5y, range: 1-15y) and a range of 4D paediatric extended cardiac torso (XCAT) phantoms (n = 75, median age 9.1y, range: 1-18y). For each dataset, nineteen organs were segmented on all age models to determine their volume. Each set was evaluated through a linear fit of organ volume with age, where comparisons were made relative to the linear fit of the clinical data.Main Results.Overall good anatomical plausibility was found for the RT-PAL phantoms. The age-dependency reported was comparable to both the clinical data and other phantoms, demonstrating their efficacy as a library of age-specific phantoms. Larger discrepancies with the clinical, ICRP and XCAT organ data were attributable to differences in organ filling, segmentation strategy and age distribution of the datasets, limitations of RT-PAL generation methodology, and/or possible anatomical differences between healthy and cancer populations.Significance.The RT-PAL models showed potential in representing the paediatric radiotherapy cohort, who are most likely to benefit from dedicated, age-specific anatomical phantoms.

Analyzing Daytime/Nighttime Pedestrian Crash Patterns in Michigan Using Unsupervised Machine Learning Techniques and their Potential as a Decision-Making Tool

Background Data mining applications are becoming increasingly common across various fields. Numerous data mining methodologies have been utilized in pedestrian crash data analysis. However, association and correspondence analyses have yet to be extensively employed in pedestrian safety literature to support decision-making. Material and Methods Road lighting significantly affects pedestrian crashes, highlighting the importance of examining pedestrian crash patterns during daytime and nighttime. This study analyzed pedestrian fatal and injury crashes in Michigan from 2011 to 2021 under varying road lighting conditions. The study identified pedestrian crash patterns using unsupervised machine-learning techniques based on several multidimensional factors. The Association Rules Learning (ARL) technique was used to determine general associations of patterns leading to pedestrian crashes. At the same time, Multiple Correspondence Analysis (MCA) helped understand crash attribute patterns in two notable scenarios: elderly pedestrian crashes during daytime lighting and high-speed midblock crashes during nighttime. These methods revealed key patterns associated with contributing factors to pedestrian crashes in different lighting conditions. Results In the analysis of cloud combinations involving elderly pedestrians during daylight, it was found that: 1) elderly pedestrians were significantly involved in severe injury crashes at two-lane midblock locations with a speed limit between 45 and 65 mph; 2) improper actions by elderly drivers were significantly associated with elderly pedestrians on wide roads (>5 lanes); and 3) the complex interaction between city streets with 3-5 lanes was significantly correlated with drivers 'failed to yield' actions. Additionally, in the analysis of cloud combinations involving nighttime pedestrian crashes at high-speed midblock locations, it was found that 1) a specific age group of alcohol- or drug-involved pedestrians (19-30) was significantly associated with young drivers and improper driver actions; 2) during the winter season, young pedestrians were significantly involved in moderate injury crashes at undivided midblock locations; and 3) elderly drivers and 'failed to yield' actions were highly correlated with 3-5 lane roadways. Discussion The research findings are expected to raise awareness of Michigan pedestrian crash patterns under daytime and nighttime lighting conditions. They will also recommend safety countermeasures for practitioners to enhance pedestrian safety in walkable cities. The proposed methodologies can uncover relationships that need to be well-documented in the existing literature on pedestrian safety. Additionally, these methods can identify valuable relationships without restricting variables to being either dependent or independent, and they can reveal relationships that might be challenging to detect otherwise. The results will also provide decision rules and visualizations that are easy to understand. Conclusion The results showed that the proposed techniques can analyze pedestrian crash data in a way that aligns with understanding pedestrian crash characteristics. Traffic safety administrators could benefit from this methodology as a decision-support tool.
