Incremental Learning of New Classes in Unbalanced Datasets: Learn + + .UDNC
نویسندگان
چکیده
We have previously described an incremental learning algorithm, Learn.NC, for learning from new datasets that may include new concept classes without accessing previously seen data. We now propose an extension, Learn.UDNC, that allows the algorithm to incrementally learn new concept classes from unbalanced datasets. We describe the algorithm in detail, and provide some experimental results on two separate representative scenarios (on synthetic as well as real world data) along with comparisons to other approaches for incremental and/or unbalanced dataset approaches.

Evolving Classifiers: Methods for Incremental Learning
The ability of a classifier to take on new information and classes by evolving the classifier without it having to be fully retrained is known as incremental learning. Incremental learning has been successfully applied to many classification problems, where the data is changing and is not all available at once. In this paper there is a comparison between Learn++, which is one of the most recent...
متن کاملEnsemble of SVMs for Incremental Learning
Support Vector Machines (SVMs) have been successfully applied to solve a large number of classification and regression problems. However, SVMs suffer from the catastrophic forgetting phenomenon, which results in loss of previously learned information. Learn have recently been introduced as an incremental learning algorithm. The strength of Learn lies in its ability to learn new data without for...
متن کاملTeaching Robots to Learn New Objects in Constant Time
We consider object recognition in the context of lifelong learning, where a robotic agent learns to discriminate between a growing number of object classes as it accumulates experience about the environment. We propose an incremental variant of the Regularized Least Squares for Classification (RLSC) algorithm, and exploit its structure to seamlessly add new classes to the learned model. The pre...
متن کاملReducing the Effect of Out-Voting Problem in Ensemble Based Incremental Support Vector Machines
Although Support Vector Machines (SVMs) have been successfully applied to solve a large number of classification and regression problems, they suffer from the catastrophic forgetting phenomenon. In our previous work, integrating the SVM classifiers into an ensemble framework using Learn++ (SVMLearn++) [1], we have shown that the SVM classifiers can in fact be equipped with the incremental learn...
متن کاملLearn++.MT: A New Approach to Incremental Learning
An ensemble of classifiers based algorithm, Learn++, was recently introduced that is capable of incrementally learning new information from datasets that consecutively become available, even if the new data introduce additional classes that were not formerly seen. The algorithm does not require access to previously used datasets, yet it is capable of largely retaining the previously acquired kn...
