Ques : Working of FP growth algorithm:

Ans :

  1. Create Frequent Pattern Tree, or FP-tree by compressing the transaction database. Along with
    preserving the information about the itemset, the tree structure also retains the association
    among the itemset.
  2. Divide the transaction database into a set of conditional databases. where each associated with
    one frequent item or “pattern fragment,” and examines each database separately.
  3. For each “pattern fragment,” examine its associated itemset only. Therefore, this approach
    may substantially reduce the size of the itemset to be searched, along with examining the
    “growth” of patterns.
