Abstract

With the advancement of information society, a large amount of data, which is in the form of stream, has been produced in many fields. As a result of its extensive application in the fields of sensor networks, banking and telecommunications, data stream mining is obtaining more attention. One of the most challenging steps to learn from data stream is to react to concept drift, as most of the existing data stream algorithms only deal with abrupt or gradual concept drifts. The existing work of detecting concept drift is mostly based on the changing of error rate of single window, making it difficult to be universally applied to different types of concept drifts. A method of detecting concept drift is proposed in this paper based on Kolmogorov–Smirnov test (K–S test).
