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.Read More
