Using additive expert ensembles to cope with concept drift
Abstract
We consider online learning where the target concept can change over time. Previous work on expert prediction algorithms has bounded the worst-case performance on any subsequence of the training data relative to the performance of the best expert. However, because these "experts" may be difficult to implement, we take a more general approach and bound performance relative to the actual performance of any online learner on this single subsequence. We present the additive expert ensemble algorithm AddExp, a new, general method for using any online learner for drifting concepts. We adapt techniques for analyzing expert prediction algorithms to prove mistake and loss bounds for a discrete and a continuous version of AddExp. Finally, we present pruning methods and empirical results for data sets with concept drift.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
