Abstract The main objective of this paper is to introduce fuzzy sequential patterns with fuzzy time-intervals in quantitative sequence databases. In the fuzzy sequential pattern with fuzzy time-intervals, both quantitative attributes and time distances are represented by linguistic terms. A new algorithm based on the Apriori algorithm is proposed to find the patterns. The mined patterns can be applied to market basket analysis, stock market analysis, and so on.
