Concept of CVFDT Algorithm




An extension to VFDT, which adds the ability to
detect and respond to changes in examplegenerating
Not need to learn a new model from scratch every
time a new example arrives
Scan HT and alternate trees periodically  look for
internal nodes whose sufficient statistics indicate
better attribute
When alternate subtree becomes more accurate, the
old subtree is replaced by the new one

Window Size


One windows size w will not be appropriate
for every concept and every type of drift
Shrink w when



many of the nodes in HT become questionable at
once
or in response to a rapid change in data rate
Increase w when

2002/3/6
Few questionable node  concept is stable

Initialize weight to .2 except for w0
which is .25d
Substitute its coordinates into the left
hand side of Equation to obtain a sum s

CVFDT took 4.3 times longer than VFDT
VFDT’s average memory allocation over
the course of the run was 23MB while
CVFDT’s was 16.5MB
The average number of nodes in
VFDT’s tree was 2696 and in CVFDT’s
tree was 677(132: alternate tree, 545:
main tree)

Conclusion


Introducing CVFDT, learning accurate
models from the most demanding highspeed, concept-drifting data streams
Maintain a decision-tree up-to-date with
a windows of examples

Opinion


Many techniques have the problem,
concept drift.
So, maybe we could apply the concept
in this paper to our other techniques,
like the association rule mining,
clustering algorithms, and so on.
