Future of Frequent Pattern Mining

Hi, I'm resending this mail to also include the users list. To wrap up: We currently have a discussion whether our frequent pattern mining package should stay in the codebase. The original author suggested to remove the original implementation and maybe retain the FPGrowth2 implementation.

what is the alternative and if one would still want to use the frequent pattern mining code in the future, how would this be possible otherwise? Thanks Michael Am 28.04.14 08:19, schrieb Sebastian Schelter: Hi, I'm resending this mail to also include the users list. To wrap up: We currently

Hi Michael, the problem is that currently nodoby is maintaining the fpgrowth code anymore or working on documentation for it, that's why we consider it to be a candidate for removal. I don't see much value in keeping algorithms in the codebase if nobody is maintaining them, answering

Hi Sebastian Thanks for your reply. I agree that makes sense. I am not familiar enough with the codebase of Mahout, but generally speaking it might make sense to modularize it somehow, such that algorithms like the fpgrowth code could be downloaded separately independent of the core codebase.

+100 to purging this from the codebase. This stuff uses the old MR api and would have to be upgraded not to mention that this was removed from 0.9 and was restored only because one user wanted it who promised to maintain it and has not been heard from. On Mon, Apr 28, 2014 at 2:19 AM,

One thought is to extract the code, publish on github with warnings about no support. Then if there are requests, we can point them to the GH archive and tell them to go for it. On Mon, Apr 28, 2014 at 10:03 AM, Suneel Marthi smar...@apache.org wrote: +100 to purging this from the codebase.
