DATA MINING TEMPLATE LIBRARY (Frequent Pattern Mining)

We are glad to announce the public release of the Data Mining Template Library (DMTL) for Frequent Pattern Mining.

DMTL, which is written in C++, is an open-source, high-performance, generic data mining toolkit. It provides a collection of generic algorithms and data structures for mining increasingly complex and informative patterns types such as:

  • Itemsets
  • Sequences
  • Trees
  • Graphs
DMTL utilizes a generic data mining approach, where all aspects of mining are controlled via a set of properties. For example, the kind of pattern to be mined, the kind of mining approach to use, and the kind of data types and formats to mine over are all specified as a list of properties. The provides tremendous flexibility to customize the toolkit for the task at hand.

DMTL can be downloaded from the sourceforge site: http://sourceforge.net/projects/dmtl

The project file contains the source code, test examples, extensive documentation as well as related papers.

DMTL project is funded by the Knowledge Discovery and Dissemination program through the National Science Foundation (NSF).

The DMTL Team Includes:

  • Mohammed J. Zaki, PI
  • Mohammed Al Hasan, Vineet Chaoji, and Saeed Salem -- PhD Students
Computer Science Department
