Therefore, how to apply the advanced data mining analysis techniques in databases is very important. By applying data mining, marketing-driven and R&D related knowledge can be obtained. Data mining also helps develop new products to satisfy customers and improve manufacturing process and cut cost. As an important knowledge representation in data mining, frequent itemsets show up numerous product combinations revealing customers’ preferences.
