Download link for Ta Feng Grocery dataset [closed]

Question

I am desperately trying to download the Ta-Feng grocery dataset for few days but appears that all links are broken. I needed for data mining / machine learning research for my msc thesis. I also have the Microsoft grocery database, the Belgian store and Supermarket.arff from Weka. However in the research they say Ta Feng is largest and most interesting from all public available data sets.

I will be super thankful for any help :) Cheers!

Answer 1

The person that down voted doesn't understand the difficulty to find this valuable piece of information for machine learning related to supermarket scenarios. It is the biggest publicly available dataset containing 4 months of shopping transactions of the Ta-Feng supermarket. I got it from Prof. Chun Nan who was very kind to send it to me because the servers of his previous institute in Taiwan were not supporting it anymore. Here is a link for everybody that needs it: https://sites.google.com/site/dataminingcourse2009/spring2016/annoucement2016/assignment3/D11-02.ZIP
