Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) Frequent patterns mining is one of the important problem in data mining research. The Apriori is a prominent algorithm followed by many variants. In 2000, the FP-growth, which is reported to be faster than the Apriori, was proposed. However, many parallel algorithms of frequent pattern mining are still based on the Apriori. In this paper, we propose a parallelized version of the FP-growth, which accesses disks in parallel and constructs local FP-trees on each local memory. As a result of the evaluation using 32 node PC cluster, our method is approximately 2 and 130 times faster than sequential FP-growth, when minimum support is 0.25% and 2%, respectively.
