摘要
In the transactional setting of finding frequent embedded patterns from a large collection of tree-structured data, the crucial step is to decide whether a tree pattern is subtree homeomorphic to a database tree. Our extensive study on the properties of real-world tree-structured datasets reveals that while many vertices in a database tree may have the same label, no two vertices on the same path are identically labeled. In this paper, we exploit this property and propose a novel and efficient method for deciding whether a tree pattern is subtree homeomorphic to a database tree. Our algorithm is based on a compact data-structure, called EMET, that stores all information required for subtree homeomorphism. We propose an efficient algorithm to generate EMETs of larger patterns using EMETs of the smaller ones. Based on the proposed subtree homeomorphism method, we introduce TTM, an effective algorithm for finding frequent tree patterns from rooted ordered trees. We evaluate the efficiency of TTM on several real-world and synthetic datasets and show that it outperforms well-known existing algorithms by an order of magnitude.
