- Abstract
- Counterfeiting is a growing problem all over the world, threatening the health of consumers and lead to financial losses for legally run business. By detecting counterfeit products before they are distributed to the end-users, the problem can be prevented. In this study, we propose an alternative frequent pattern mining algorithm to discover licit supply chain patterns from trace records and a classification algorithm to distinguish counterfeit products with these licit supply chain patterns. The presented algorithms are studied with computer simulations that model the flow of genuine and counterfeit products in a comprehensive supply chain. The results suggest that these algorithms could be used to automatically detect suspicious products. © 2013 GIRI.
