Abstract Temporal data is a kind of useful information. Temporal attributes in data can be used to find some potential change rules of data and predict the possible tendency. An algorithm, Temporal Frequent Pattern mining algorithm (TemFP) is presented. According to the existing function of temporal query, a Double B+tree for storing time attributes of frequent patterns is described. Using a temporal frequent pattern tree including the Double B+tree, the queries of temporal rules, which defined by users, could be realized rapidly. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm is efficient and scalable.
