The document discusses using machine learning techniques like frequent itemset mining to analyze customer purchase data and predict online buying behavior. It proposes a parallel frequent itemset mining algorithm to efficiently process large datasets. The algorithm divides the data into parts, mines frequent itemsets from each part in parallel, and then combines the results. This approach improves storage capacity, computation, and performance compared to traditional frequent itemset mining algorithms. The goal is to provide useful insights into customer purchasing decisions to help businesses.
