Abstract:
Methods, systems, and devices for data attribution using frequent pattern analysis are described. In some cases, data stored at a multi-tenant database server may be analyzed to understand various interactions and patterns between data attributes associated with multiple users. The multi-tenant database server may effectively cluster and/or perform calculations on attributes of the data to understand user patterns. In some examples, the multi-tenant database server may determine a change (e.g., a probability change) in the user patterns by removing one or more attributes from the data set and re-performing the analysis. By re-performing the analysis, the multi-tenant database server may attribute a value to individual pieces and combinations of the data in order to indicate the effect that each piece of data has on the analysis.
