Java library for Pattern mining on time based data

Question

We have a number representing volume of posts per minute on numerous subjects. We want to be able to find patterns so that we can predict what the volume of posts will be in the future.

We want the pattern detection process to be automatic (no human interaction required) and we have been wondering if there is any way to automate it. We have been reading about "pattern mining", but we haven't been able to find any java libraries we could start working with.

Are there any Java libraries for Pattern mining on time based data that we could use to automate this pattern mining process? Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

You could check my open source Data Mining framework: http://www.philippe-fournier-viger.com/spmf/ (SPMF)

It provides more than 130 algorithms. Several of them are designed to perform time-related data mining tasks such as discovering sequential patterns and sequential rules in a set of sequences.

I don't know if some of them would fit your needs. But you can check it out.
