PHUI-Miner parallelizes the state-of-the-art high utility itemset mining algorithm HUI-Miner. In PHUI-Miner, the search space of the high utility itemset mining problem is divided and assigned to nodes in a cluster, which splits the workload. However, PHUI-Miner can also be used on top of other algorithms, e.g. FHM. In this implementation, FHM is used to for better performance.
