PrefixSpan: Mining Sequential Patterns by Prefix-Projected Growth

Abstract: Sequential pattern mining is an important data mining problem with broad applications. It is challenging since one may need to examine a combinatorially explosive number of possible subsequence patterns. Most of the previously developed ...

We want to find sequential patterns in a long continues noisy DNA sequence. Sequential pattern mining, which discovers frequent subsequences as patterns in a sequence database, is an important data mining problem with broad applications, including the ...

Malware detection is an important application of data mining. Most of the previously developed sequential pattern mining methods are Apriori-like, which still encounters problems when a sequence database is large and/or when sequential patterns to be ...
