Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this thesis we elaborate on knowledge acquisition and learning from non-stationary data streams. A data stream is formed by consecutively arriving data examples, whose data generating process may change in the course of time. Both the cumulative and the non-stationary nature of the data within a stream create a challenge for traditional machine learning methods.Concentrating on adaptive supervised learning from data streams, we introduce two novel learning methods: IBLStreams and eFPT. IBLStreams is an instance-based learner that shows how instance-based learning approaches, compared to model-based approaches, are naturally incremental besides their inherent ability to adapt upon the occurrence of a concept change. Evolving fuzzy pattern trees (eFPTs) utilize the potential interpretability of the fuzzy logic concepts in inducing compact trees; the induced trees offer the tradeoff between compact interpretable models and generalization performance. eFPTs attempt to dynamically evolve the induced tree in order to reflect any change in the underlying data generating process.We also introduce "recovery analysis" as a new type of evaluation for adaptive supervised learners on data streams. It is an experimental protocol to assess the learner's ability to learn and recover after a concept change. The resulting recovery pattern of the learning method can be analyzed both graphically and numerically using recovery measures.Apart from the full supervision offered in the streams studied in the previous approaches, we also consider streams of events: such a stream contains temporal events emitted from instances under observation. For a given instance, the survival time is the time this instance spends in the study until experiencing the event of interest. ... ; eng

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.

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.

Download or read book Metalearning written by Pavel Brazdil and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2008-11-26 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Metalearning is the study of principled methods that exploit metaknowledge to obtain efficient models and solutions by adapting machine learning and data mining processes. While the variety of machine learning and data mining techniques now available can, in principle, provide good model solutions, a methodology is still needed to guide the search for the most appropriate model in an efficient way. Metalearning provides one such methodology that allows systems to become more effective through experience. This book discusses several approaches to obtaining knowledge concerning the performance of machine learning and data mining algorithms. It shows how this knowledge can be reused to select, combine, compose and adapt both algorithms and models to yield faster, more effective solutions to data mining problems. It can thus help developers improve their algorithms and also develop learning systems that can improve themselves. The book will be of interest to researchers and graduate students in the areas of machine learning, data mining and artificial intelligence.

This book was released on 2006-05-06 with total page 375 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The growth in the amount of data collected and generated has exploded in recent times with the widespread automation of various day-to-day activities, advances in high-level scienti?c and engineering research and the development of e?cient data collection tools. This has given rise to the need for automa- callyanalyzingthedatainordertoextractknowledgefromit,therebymaking the data potentially more useful. Knowledge discovery and data mining (KDD) is the process of identifying valid, novel, potentially useful and ultimately understandable patterns from massive data repositories. It is a multi-disciplinary topic, drawing from s- eral ?elds including expert systems, machine learning, intelligent databases, knowledge acquisition, case-based reasoning, pattern recognition and stat- tics. Many data mining systems have typically evolved around well-organized database systems (e.g., relational databases) containing relevant information. But, more and more, one ?nds relevant information hidden in unstructured text and in other complex forms. Mining in the domains of the world-wide web, bioinformatics, geoscienti?c data, and spatial and temporal applications comprise some illustrative examples in this regard. Discovery of knowledge, or potentially useful patterns, from such complex data often requires the - plication of advanced techniques that are better able to exploit the nature and representation of the data. Such advanced methods include, among o- ers, graph-based and tree-based approaches to relational learning, sequence mining, link-based classi?cation, Bayesian networks, hidden Markov models, neural networks, kernel-based methods, evolutionary algorithms, rough sets and fuzzy logic, and hybrid systems. Many of these methods are developed in the following chapters.

Download or read book Realtime Data Mining written by Alexander Paprotny and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-12-03 with total page 333 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ​​​​Describing novel mathematical concepts for recommendation engines, Realtime Data Mining: Self-Learning Techniques for Recommendation Engines features a sound mathematical framework unifying approaches based on control and learning theories, tensor factorization, and hierarchical methods. Furthermore, it presents promising results of numerous experiments on real-world data.​ The area of realtime data mining is currently developing at an exceptionally dynamic pace, and realtime data mining systems are the counterpart of today's “classic” data mining systems. Whereas the latter learn from historical data and then use it to deduce necessary actions, realtime analytics systems learn and act continuously and autonomously. In the vanguard of these new analytics systems are recommendation engines. They are principally found on the Internet, where all information is available in realtime and an immediate feedback is guaranteed. This monograph appeals to computer scientists and specialists in machine learning, especially from the area of recommender systems, because it conveys a new way of realtime thinking by considering recommendation tasks as control-theoretic problems. Realtime Data Mining: Self-Learning Techniques for Recommendation Engines will also interest application-oriented mathematicians because it consistently combines some of the most promising mathematical areas, namely control theory, multilevel approximation, and tensor factorization.

Download or read book Change Mining and Analysis for Data Streams written by David Tse Jung Huang and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 153 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2015, it is estimated that around 500 million Tweets are generated each day and more than 300 hours of video are uploaded to YouTube every minute. Characterized by large volume and fast speed of arrival, these data, arriving in the form of data streams, contain valuable knowledge that data scientists and businesses across the globe are desperately trying to gain access to. Mining these data using traditional techniques designed for databases is no longer feasible and new algorithms must be developed to overcome the constraints. Data streams are dynamic and fast changing and adapting the learning models to react to the presence of change is essential. Currently, change mining only discovers when changes occur and does not consider further characteristics such as how frequently changes occur and how severe or drastic the changes are. This thesis first studies change mining in combination with supervised classification learning and discovers additional change characteristics to further improve how the learning models adapt to the changes in the data stream. Second, the thesis studies change mining in combination with unsupervised association rule mining to find changes in rare association rules. In the first part, we propose a novel change detector, SEED, that finds when changes occur 8 times faster than the current state-of-the-art technique. We then propose and find stream volatility which characterizes how frequently changes occur and also discover the magnitude and slope of the changes which characterizes how severe or drastic the changes are. Further, we show, both empirically and theoretically, that we can use these additional characteristics to establish a more effective change detection approach with more than 90% false positive reduction and build a better learning model in the presence of changes in data streams. Change mining is traditionally studied in combination with supervised classification learning. Currently, there is limited research that investigates when changes occur in data streams in combination with unsupervised learning techniques such as association rule mining. Due to the inherent differences between supervised and unsupervised learning, current change detection methods cannot be directly applied to discover changes in association rules. In the second part, we propose a tree-structured technique that finds rare association rules in data streams and we further define the problem of finding changes in rare association rules. We propose a novel M measure that facilitates the discovery of changes in rare association rules when used in conjunction with SEED. We show experimentally that changes in rare patterns can be discovered with high true positive rate and low false positive rate. In answering the questions of when and how changes occur, we hope that we may be a step closer to figuring out the even more difficult question: exactly what has changed?
