Examining concepts that change over time has been an active area of research within data mining. This paper presents a new method that functions in contexts where concept drift is present, while also allowing for modification of the instances themselves as they change over time. This method is well suited to domains where subjects of interest are sampled multiple times, and where they may migra...

Submitted for the DPP09 Meeting of The American Physical Society Control of drift wave turbulence by driven plasma currents OLAF GRULKE, CHRISTIAN BRANDT, STEFAN ULLRICH, KIAN RAHBARNIA, THOMAS KLINGER, MPI for Plasma Physics, EURATOM Association, D-17491 Greifswald — The anomalous transport in the plasma edge of fusion devices is believed to be dominated by the drift wave instability, which is...

Two strategies can guide walking to a stationary goal: (1) the optic-flow strategy, in which one aligns the direction of locomotion or "heading" specified by optic flow with the visual goal; and (2) the egocentric-direction strategy, in which one aligns the locomotor axis with the perceived egocentric direction of the goal and in which error results in optical target drift. Optic flow appears t...

We present an approach to protein folding kinetics using stochastic reaction-coordinate dynamics, in which the effective drift velocities and diffusion coefficients are determined from microscopic simulation data. The resultant Langevin equation can then be used to directly simulate the folding process. Here, we test this approach by applying it to a toy two-state dynamical system and to a funn...

Spray drift assessment encompasses classification of the capacity of each sprayer/ technology/setting combination to reduce or avoid the spray drift risk, as well as drift measurement to define buffer zones mandated during pesticide application. Compounding the challenge of these tasks is the great variability of field evaluation results from environmental conditions, spray application technolo...

In the so-called ‘alpha-heating’ experiment performed on the JET tokamak during the deuterium–tritium campaign of 1997, the ion temperature was found to be far exceeding (both in absolute value and in its rise time) the level that could have been expected from direct collisional heating by the fusion-born alpha particles themselves and energy equipartition with the electrons. To date, no explan...

The bacterium Escherichia coli (E. coli) moves in its natural environment in a series of straight runs, interrupted by tumbles which cause change of direction. It performs chemotaxis towards chemo-attractants by extending the duration of runs in the direction of the source. When there is a spatial gradient in the attractant concentration, this bias produces a drift velocity directed towards its...

We study the dimensional coupling in a three-dimensional Brownian motor based on cold atoms in a double optical lattice. Due to controllable relative spatial phases between the lattices, our Brownian motor can induce drifts in arbitrary directions. Here, the multidimensional coupling of the relative spatial phases and its effect on the induced drift is investigated. This is done both experiment...

Concept drift is the condition when the process changes during the course of execution. Current methods and analysis techniques existing in process mining are not proficient of analyzing the process which has experienced the concept drift. State-of-the-art process mining approaches consider the process as a static entity and assume that process remains same from beginning of its execution perio...

A conspicuous 60° bend of the Hawaiian-Emperor Chain in the north-western Pacific Ocean has variously been interpreted as the result of an abrupt Pacific plate motion change in the Eocene (∼47 Ma), a rapid southward drift of the Hawaiian hotspot before the formation of the bend, or a combination of these two causes. Palaeomagnetic data from the Emperor Seamounts prove ambiguous for constraining...
