The researcher proposed the concept of Top-K high-utility itemsets mining over data streams. Users directly specify the number K of high-utility itemsets they wish to obtain for mining with no need to set a minimum utility threshold. There exist some problems in current Top-K high-utility itemsets mining algorithms over data streams including the complex construction process of the storage structure, the inefficiency of threshold raising strategies and utility pruning strategies, and large scale of the search space, etc., which still can not meet the requirement of real-time processing over data streams with limited time and memory constraints. To solve this problem, this paper proposes an efficient algorithm based on dataset projection for mining Top-K high-utility itemsets from a data stream. A data structure CIUDataListSW is also proposed, which stores the position of the item in the transaction to effectively obtain the initial projected dataset of the item. In order to improve the projection efficiency, this paper innovates a new reorganization technology for projected transactions in common batches to maintain the sort order of transactions in the process of dataset projection. Dual pruning strategy and transaction merging mechanism are also used to further reduce search space and dataset scanning costs. In addition, based on the proposed CUDHSW structure, an efficient threshold raising strategy CUD is used, and a new threshold raising strategy CUDCB is designed to further shorten the mining time. Experimental results show that the algorithm has great advantages in running time and memory consumption, and it is especially suitable for the mining of high-utility itemsets of dense datasets.
