T-GRAANK

A python implementation of the Temporal-GRAdual rANKing algorithm. The algorithm extends the GRAANK algorithm to the case of temporal gradual tendencies. We have optimized the implementation of the algorithm by: (1) using Numpy functions for operations that are time-consuming and, (2) allowed parallel multiprocessing. The research paper is available via:

  • D. Owuor, A. Laurent and J. Orero, "Mining Fuzzy-Temporal Gradual Patterns," 2019 IEEE International Conference on Fuzzy Systems (FUZZ-IEEE), 2019, pp. 1-6, doi: 10.1109/FUZZ-IEEE.2019.8858883.

List of (important) Files:

  1. README.md (this file)
  2. cli_main.py (for running algorithm manually)
  3. DATASET.csv (a dataset for quick testing)

Installation

  • Install Python version 3.11 on your computer.
  • Download, extract the source code folder named 't-graank' and save it to your preferred location on your PC.
  • Open a terminal application such as CMD.
  • Navigate to the location where you saved the 't-graank' folder using the terminal.
  • Execute the following commands:
cd t-graank
pip install --upgrade pip
pip install -r requirements.txt
pip install .

Usage:

Use it a command line program with the local package:

__main__.py -f datasets/DATASET.csv -t targetColumn -s minSupport  -r minRepresentativity -p allowMultiprocessing -c numCPUs

The input parameters are: fileName.csv, targetColumn, minSupport, minRepresentativity. You are required to use a file in csv format and make sure the timestamp column is the first column in the file. You specify:

  • target column - (int) column\attribute that is the base of the temporal transformations
  • minimum support - (float: 0-1) threshold count of frequent FtGPs
  • minimum representativity item - (float: 0-1) threshold count of transformations to be performed on the data-set

Example with a data-set and specified values

TemporalGP -f datasets/DATASET.csv -t 0 -s 0.5 -r 0.5 -p 1

Output:

Dataset Ok
{'Transformation': 'n+3', 'Representativity': 0.94, 'Included Rows': 47, 'Total Rows': 50}
1 : exercise_hours**
2 : stress_level
Pattern : Support
{'1+', '2+'} : 0.5060129509713228 | ~ +6.0 days : 1.0
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# can be interpreted as: the more exercise_hours, the more stress_level almost 6 days later
