+#### FP-growth
+
+`spark.fpGrowth` executes FP-growth algorithm to mine frequent itemsets on a `SparkDataFrame`. `itemsCol` should be an array of values.
+
+```{r}
+df <- selectExpr(createDataFrame(data.frame(rawItems = c(
+  "T,R,U", "T,S", "V,R", "R,U,T,V", "R,S", "V,S,U", "U,R", "S,T", "V,R", "V,U,S",
+  "T,V,U", "R,V", "T,S", "T,S", "S,T", "S,U", "T,R", "V,R", "S,V", "T,S,U"
+))), "split(rawItems, ',') AS items")
+
+fpm <- spark.fpGrowth(df, minSupport = 0.2, minConfidence = 0.5)
+```
+
+`spark.freqItemsets` method can be used to retrieve a `SparkDataFrame` with the frequent itemsets.
+
+```{r}
+head(spark.freqItemsets(fpm))
+```
+
+`spark.associationRules` returns a `SparkDataFrame` with the association rules.
+
+```{r}
+head(spark.associationRules(fpm))
+```
+
+We can make predictions based on the `antecedent`.
+
+```{r}
+head(predict(fpm, df))
+```
+
 #### Kolmogorov-Smirnov Test
 
 `spark.kstest` runs a two-sided, one-sample [Kolmogorov-Smirnov (KS) test](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kolmogorov%E2%80%93Smirnov_test).
