Abstract
Embodiments of the present invention provide systems and methods for associating rule mining in data comprising first and second variables, by generating a first and second filtering bitmap. The first filtering bitmap represents a set of values for the second variable for each of a plurality of values of the first variable. The second filtering bitmap represents, associations between frequent values of the second variable, which enables the identification of frequent 2-pattern itemsets. Thus, by performing first logical operations on the frequent 2-pattern itemsets, frequent high order-pattern itemsets may be identified. A max pattern itemset may be identified among the frequent high order-pattern itemsets. As a result, embodiments may mitigate performance and stability problems associated with conventional association rule mining approaches.
