This paper presents a new association rule mining algorithm called MFP. The MFP algorithm can convert a transaction database into an MFP_tree through scanning the database only once, and then do the mining of the tree. The MFP algorithm usually is more efficient than FP_growth. We used it for mining some formulas of synthetic perfume essence and obtained the success.
