I want to apply Apriori Algorithm to the retail dataset (market basket data from retail store). It has data in the form:-

0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 
30 31 32 
33 34 35 
36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 
38 39 47 48 
38 39 48 49 50 51 52 53 54 55 56 57 58 
32 41 59 60 61 62 
3 39 48

So, in order to use Apriori algorithm I need the data in the form of a Python list of lists into a Numpy array as:-

Column Names as 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10........

Dataset as:

0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 .........30 31 32 33 34 35....
1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1...........0  0  0  0  0  0...
0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0...........1  1  1  0  0  0..
and so on..

For this I am trying to use Transaction Encoder:-

dataset = pd.read_csv('retail.dat', header=None)
from mlxtend.preprocessing import TransactionEncoder

transactionEncoder = TransactionEncoder()
dataset = transactionEncoder.fit(dataset).transform(dataset)
dataset.astype('int')
print(dataset)

But I am getting the error:-

TypeError: 'int' object is not iterable

I also want to attach column names as 0 1 2.... to the newly formed dataset, but print(transactionEncoder.columns_) not giving valid columns. Please tell what can be the issue and what is the correct method to apply Transaction Encoder on this dataset...

IIUC, you can stack the dataframe and try crosstab:

df =  pd.read_csv('retail.dat', sep=' ', header=None)
new_df = df.stack().astype(int).reset_index(name='value')
pd.crosstab(new_df['level_0'], new_df['value'])

Output:

value    0   1   2   3   4   5   6   7   8   9   ...  53  54  55  56  57  58  ...
level_0                                          ...                           
0         1   1   1   1   1   1   1   1   1   1  ...   0   0   0   0   0   0   
1         0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0  ...   0   0   0   0   0   0   
2         0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0  ...   0   0   0   0   0   0   
3         0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0  ...   0   0   0   0   0   0

5         0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0  ...   1   1   1   1   1   1

7         0   0   0   1   0   0   0   0   0   0  ...   0   0   0   0   0   0

You can try this:

import pandas as pd
import numpy as np
from io import StringIO
from mlxtend.preprocessing import TransactionEncoder

inputstr = StringIO("""0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 
30 31 32 
33 34 35 
36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 
38 39 47 48 
38 39 48 49 50 51 52 53 54 55 56 57 58 
32 41 59 60 61 62 
3 39 48 """)

df = pd.read_csv(inputstr, header=None,sep='\s+')
df_out = df.apply(lambda x: list(x.dropna().values), axis=1).tolist()

transactionEncoder = TransactionEncoder()
dataset = transactionEncoder.fit(df_out).transform(df_out)
dataset = dataset.astype('int')
print(dataset)

Output:

  0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0]]

and convert to dataframe:

dataset_df = pd.DataFrame(dataset)
