Most algorithms for mining spatial co-locations adopt an Apriori-like approach to generate size-k prevalence co-locations after size-(k − 1) prevalence co-locations. However, generating and storing the co-locations and table instances is costly. A no... Read More about An order-clique-based approach for mining maximal co-locations.
