Introduction

Large Scale Applications
 Building classifiers on large datasets requires
development of new techniques that minimize the
overall execution time with comparable quality.
 Constructing a classifier for large growing dataset from
scratch would be extremely wasteful and
computationally prohibitive.

ICE (Incremental Classification for Ever-growing
large datasets)
 Incrementally building decision tree classifiers for lager
growing datasets using tree-based sampling techniques

Decision Tree Classification
 Easily interpreted and comprehended by human beings,
and constructed relatively fast
 No prior knowledge of domains or distributions on the
data, but good classification accuracy
 Construction phase and pruning phase

Problem Definition
 Terms
 A decision
tree T
 A dataset D of size N
 A new incremental dataset d of size n
 A new decision tree T´
 The goal is to build T´ with minimal cost such that T´ is
comparably as accurate as the decision tree built for
D+d from scratch.

total number of records in a set S

Weighted Gini Index
 A weight can be assigned to a record when the record
represents a number of other records.
 The motivation for the weighted gini index
 Replace
similar records by a weighted representative and use them
in an incremental batch learning
 A set S´ of n sorted numerical points in nondecreasing order
point (call w-point) associated with a weight k (k  1).

ICE: A Scalable Method for Incremental Classification
 Characteristics of ICE
 Size
scalability, easy parallelization, inherent migration into
distributed environment, temporal scalability, algorithm independent,
minimal data access, and flexibility in dealing with addition and
deletion of records as partition

Sampling for Incremental
Classification

Sampling from Decision Tree
 One of the problem with random
sampling is that it is sensitive to
the distribution of data.
 The decision tree built on a
dataset can be used to generate a
good sample of the dataset.
 Such a sampling method is
expected to result in a new
decision tree with better or
comparable quality than random
sampling does.


Sampling Techniques for Incremental Classification
 Random sampling
 ICE-random: Weighted
samples are chosen randomly from each
node of the decision tree built for the current incremental partition.
 Stratified sampling: Samples are randomly chosen based on the
class labels in proportion to the size of the class in each node.
 Local clustering
 ICE-local: A clustering
algorithm can be applied to the records in
each node of an intermediate decision tree to obtain good
weighted samples.
 ICE-global: A clustering algorithm can be applied to each
incremental portion to extract samples for incremental
classification.

Cost of Incremental Classification Using ICE
 The Cost for ICE
TICE ( A, D)  T ( A, Di )  r  Di  T ( A,U i )
 T(A,Di): The
cost function for building a decision tree classifier
for a data set Di
 r: sampling rate (0 < r  1)
 The ratio R of the cost of ICE to the cost of building a
decision tree from scratch
R
 It
T ( A, Di )  r  Di  T ( A,U i )
T ( A, D)
converges to r for a large i under some assumptions.

Important Implications of ICE
 ICE can be applied to large datasets.
 ICE can run on any of various computing configurations.
 ICE can be utilized for dynamically growing large
datasets.
 Larger sample size may improve the overall accuracy
results of ICE, however, sampling rate need not be
significantly high.
