Class FPGrowth

Object

org.apache.spark.mllib.fpm.FPGrowth

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.io.Serializable, Logging

public class FPGrowth
extends Object
implements Logging, scala.Serializable

A parallel FP-growth algorithm to mine frequent itemsets. The algorithm is described in Li et al., PFP: Parallel FP-Growth for Query Recommendation. PFP distributes computation in such a way that each worker executes an independent group of mining tasks. The FP-Growth algorithm is described in Han et al., Mining frequent patterns without candidate generation.

param: minSupport the minimal support level of the frequent pattern, any pattern that appears more than (minSupport * size-of-the-dataset) times will be output param: numPartitions number of partitions used by parallel FP-growth
