is.generator | R Documentation |
Provides the generic function and the method 'is.generator() for finding generator itemsets. Generators are part of concise representations for frequent itemsets. A generator in a set of itemsets is an itemset that has no subset with the same support (Liu et al, 2008). Note that the empty set is by definition a generator, but it is typically not stored in the itemsets in arules.
is.generator(x)
## S4 method for signature 'itemsets'
is.generator(x)
x |
a set of itemsets. |
a logical vector with the same length as x
indicating for
each element in x
if it is a generator itemset.
