This paper presents an efficient algorithm for maintaining the generator representation in dynamic datasets. The generators representation is a kind of lossless, concise representation of the set of frequent itemsets. Furthermore, the algorithm utilizes a novel optimization based on generators borders for the first time in the literature. Generators borders are the borderline between frequent generators and other itemsets. New frequent generators can be generated through monitoring them. Experiments show that our algorithm is more efficient than previous solutions.
