Hello,

is it possible to use FP-Growth with polynomial variables? I want to find frequencies and associations between the different attributes (10), and each attribute has 4 possible values. 

Best,
Bernardo

    Hi @bernardo_pagnon,

    Surely you can use the nominal attributes for FP-Growth. The operator is accepting various formats, binomial dummy codes, concatenated list in a single column or separated list in different columns.

    Have you checked out the templates of FP-Growth that explain how to make use of different input formats?

    Cheers,
    YY

    Dear YY,

    thank you for your prompt reply. You are correct, the option "items in separate columns" solved the problem. 

    Regards,
