Overview of this book

<p>Being able to deal with the array of problems that you may encounter during complex statistical projects can be difficult. If you have only a basic knowledge of R, this book will provide you with the skills and knowledge to successfully create and customize the most popular data mining algorithms to overcome these difficulties.</p> <p>You will learn how to manipulate data with R using code snippets and be introduced to mining frequent patterns, association, and correlations while working with R programs. Discover how to write code for various predication models, stream data, and time-series data. You will also be introduced to solutions written in R based on RHadoop projects. You will finish this book feeling confident in your ability to know which data mining algorithm to apply in any situation.</p>

Mining sequence dataset


Sequential pattern mining is the major task for sequence dataset mining. The A-Priori-life algorithm is used to mine sequence patterns that use the A-Priori-life algorithm, which applies a breath-first strategy. However, for the pattern-growth method, a depth-first strategy is used instead. The algorithm sometimes integrates with constraints for various reasons.

The common purchase patterns of the customers of the store can be mined from sequential patterns. In other aspects, especially advertisement or market campaign, sequential patterns play an important role. The individual customer's behavior can be predicted from sequential patterns in the domain of web log mining, web page recommendation system, bioinformatics analysis, medical treatment sequence track and analysis, and disaster prevention and safety management.

The rules in this chapter, which are mined from sequence patterns, are of many types. Some of them are listed as follows:

  • A sequential rule is , where...
