Book Adaptive Stream Mining

Download or read book Adaptive Stream Mining written by Albert Bifet and published by IOS Press. This book was released on 2010 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a significant contribution to the subject of mining time-changing data streams and addresses the design of learning algorithms for this purpose. It introduces new contributions on several different aspects of the problem, identifying research opportunities and increasing the scope for applications. It also includes an in-depth study of stream mining and a theoretical analysis of proposed methods and algorithms. The first section is concerned with the use of an adaptive sliding window algorithm (ADWIN). Since this has rigorous performance guarantees, using it in place of counters or accumulators, it offers the possibility of extending such guarantees to learning and mining algorithms not initially designed for drifting data. Testing with several methods, including Naïve Bayes, clustering, decision trees and ensemble methods, is discussed as well. The second part of the book describes a formal study of connected acyclic graphs, or 'trees', from the point of view of closure-based mining, presenting efficient algorithms for subtree testing and for mining ordered and unordered frequent closed trees. Lastly, a general methodology to identify closed patterns in a data stream is outlined. This is applied to develop an incremental method, a sliding-window based method, and a method that mines closed trees adaptively from data streams. These are used to introduce classification methods for tree data streams.

Book Adaptivity in Data Stream Mining

Download or read book Adaptivity in Data Stream Mining written by Conny Franke and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years data streams became a ubiquitous source of information, and thus stream mining emerged as a new field in database research. Due to the inherently dynamic nature of data streams, stream mining algorithms benefit from being adaptive to changes in the properties of a data stream. In addition, when stream mining is done in a dynamic environment like a data stream management system or a sensor network, stream mining algorithms also profit from being adaptive to the changing conditions in this environment. This work investigates two kinds of adaptivity in data stream mining. First, a model for quality-driven resource adaptive stream mining is developed. The model is applied to stream mining algorithms so they efficiently utilize available resources to achieve mining results of the highest quality possible. Every stream mining algorithm is unique in its parameters, quality measures, and resource consumption patterns. We generalize these characteristics and develop a model that captures the interactions and correlations between variables involved in the stream mining process. We then express resource adaptive stream mining as a multiobjective optimization problem and use its solution to tune the input parameters of stream mining algorithms, which results in high quality mining and optimal resource utilization. The second topic investigated in this work is feature adaptive stream mining, which is concerned with adjusting the focus of the mining process to interesting features detected in the data stream. This research is motivated by the need to efficiently detect environmental phenomena from sensor data streams. We propose methods to detect and predict heterogeneous outlier regions, which represent areas of environmental phenomena of different intensities. With the help of predictions about the location and size of outlier regions, the sampling rate of individual sensors is adapted such that sensors in the vicinity of environmental phenomena obtain new measurements more frequently than other sensors in the network to allow for a precise and timely region tracking. The research in this work enhances the state-of-the-art in data stream mining as it makes stream mining algorithms more flexible to adapt to changes in the data stream and the mining environment.

Book Machine Learning for Data Streams

Download or read book Machine Learning for Data Streams written by Albert Bifet and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2018-03-16 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A hands-on approach to tasks and techniques in data stream mining and real-time analytics, with examples in MOA, a popular freely available open-source software framework. Today many information sources—including sensor networks, financial markets, social networks, and healthcare monitoring—are so-called data streams, arriving sequentially and at high speed. Analysis must take place in real time, with partial data and without the capacity to store the entire data set. This book presents algorithms and techniques used in data stream mining and real-time analytics. Taking a hands-on approach, the book demonstrates the techniques using MOA (Massive Online Analysis), a popular, freely available open-source software framework, allowing readers to try out the techniques after reading the explanations. The book first offers a brief introduction to the topic, covering big data mining, basic methodologies for mining data streams, and a simple example of MOA. More detailed discussions follow, with chapters on sketching techniques, change, classification, ensemble methods, regression, clustering, and frequent pattern mining. Most of these chapters include exercises, an MOA-based lab session, or both. Finally, the book discusses the MOA software, covering the MOA graphical user interface, the command line, use of its API, and the development of new methods within MOA. The book will be an essential reference for readers who want to use data stream mining as a tool, researchers in innovation or data stream mining, and programmers who want to create new algorithms for MOA.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The First Asian Conference on Machine Learning (ACML 2009) was held at Nanjing, China during November 2–4, 2009.This was the ?rst edition of a series of annual conferences which aim to provide a leading international forum for researchers in machine learning and related ?elds to share their new ideas and research ?ndings. This year we received 113 submissions from 18 countries and regions in Asia, Australasia, Europe and North America. The submissions went through a r- orous double-blind reviewing process. Most submissions received four reviews, a few submissions received ?ve reviews, while only several submissions received three reviews. Each submission was handled by an Area Chair who coordinated discussions among reviewers and made recommendation on the submission. The Program Committee Chairs examined the reviews and meta-reviews to further guarantee the reliability and integrity of the reviewing process. Twenty-nine - pers were selected after this process. To ensure that important revisions required by reviewers were incorporated into the ?nal accepted papers, and to allow submissions which would have - tential after a careful revision, this year we launched a “revision double-check” process. In short, the above-mentioned 29 papers were conditionally accepted, and the authors were requested to incorporate the “important-and-must”re- sionssummarizedbyareachairsbasedonreviewers’comments.Therevised?nal version and the revision list of each conditionally accepted paper was examined by the Area Chair and Program Committee Chairs. Papers that failed to pass the examination were ?nally rejected.

Book Adaptive  Hands Off Stream Mining

Download or read book Adaptive Hands Off Stream Mining written by and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sensor devices and embedded processors are becoming ubiquitous, especially in measurement and monitoring applications. Automatic discovery of patterns and trends in the large volumes of such data is of paramount importance. The combination of relatively limited resources (CPU, memory and/or communication bandwidth and power) poses some interesting challenges. We need both powerful and concise languages to represent the important features of the data, which can (a) adapt and handle arbitrary periodic components, including bursts, and (b) require little memory and a single pass over the data. This allows sensors to automatically (a) discover interesting patterns and trends in the data, and (b) perform outlier detection to alert users. We need a way so that a sensor can discover something like the hourly phone call volume so far follows a daily and a weekly periodicity, with bursts roughly every year, which a human might recognize as, e.g., the Mother's Day surge. When possible and if desired, the user can then issue explicit queries to further investigate the reported patterns. In this work we propose AWSOM (Arbitrary Window Stream mOdeling Method), which allows sensors operating in remote or hostile environments to discover patterns efficiently and effectively, with practically no user intervention. Our algorithms require limited resources and can thus be incorporated in individual sensors, possibly alongside a distributed query processing engine [CCC+02, BGS01, MSHR02]. Updates are performed in constant time, using sub-linear (in fact, logarithmic) space. Existing, state of the art forecasting methods (AR, SARIMA, GARCH, etc.) fall short on one or more of these requirements. To the best of our knowledge, AWSOM is the first method that has all the above characteristics.
