Introduction
Periodic pattern mining is an important and emerging research topic in the field of data mining. It involves discovering patterns that are occurring regularly (or periodically) in a temporal database. A major application of periodic pattern mining is market-basket analysis. It involves analyzing which sets of items were regularly purchased by the customers in the data. This book provides an introduction to this field, reviews state-of-the-art techniques, and discusses recent advances.

Book aims

  • Presents an overview of the theory and basic models used in periodic pattern mining
  • Covers recent advances on periodic pattern mining
  • Covers parallel mining of periodic patterns in big data paradigm.
  • Discusses important applications and open-source software.

Topics of interest (not limited to):

  • Periodic pattern mining
  • Periodic pattern mining in graphs
  • Parallel mining of periodic patterns in big data
  • Periodic pattern mining in streams
  • High utility periodic patterns
  • Visualization techniques.
  • Privacy preserving periodic mining
  • Open-source software
  • Applications

A chapter can be either a survey of a topic of interest or be a research paper.
