ABSTRACT
Finding Contiguous Sequential Patterns (CSP) is an important problem in Web usage mining. In this paper we propose a new data structure, UpDown Tree, for CSP mining. An UpDown Tree combines suffix tree and prefix tree for efficient storage of all the sequences that contain a given item. The special structure of UpDown Tree ensures efficient detection of CSPs. Experiments show that UpDown Tree improves CSP mining in terms of both time and memory usage comparing to previous approaches.

Contiguous item sequential pattern mining using UpDown Tree
In this paper the problem of Contiguous Item Sequential Pattern (CISP) Mining is presented as a sequential pattern mining problem under two constraints. First, each element in a sequence consists of only one item. Second, items appearing in the ...
A two stage approach for contiguous sequential pattern mining
IRI'09: Proceedings of the 10th IEEE international conference on Information Reuse & IntegrationContiguous Sequential Pattern (CSP) mining is an important problem with many applications. Using general sequential pattern mining algorithms for CSP mining may lead to poor performance due to the lack of consideration on the contiguous property of CSP. ...
