On the Semantics of Concept Drift: Towards Formal Definitions of Concept Drift and Semantic Change
نویسندگان
چکیده
Semantic change and concept drift are studied in many different academic fields. Different domains have different understandings of what a concept and, thus, concept drift is making it harder for researchers to build upon work in other disciplines. In this paper, we aim to address this challenge and propose definitions for these phenomena which apply across fields. We provide formal definitions and illustrate how concept drift and related phenomena can be modeled in RDF through the use of context. We explain and support the definitions through an example from historical research and argue that a formal modeling of semantic change in RDF can help to better interpret data.

Detecting Concept Drift in Data Stream Using Semi-Supervised Classification
Data stream is a sequence of data generated from various information sources at a high speed and high volume. Classifying data streams faces the three challenges of unlimited length, online processing, and concept drift. In related research, to meet the challenge of unlimited stream length, commonly the stream is divided into fixed size windows or gradual forgetting is used. Concept drift refer...

Process mining provides a bridge between process modeling and analysis on the one hand and data mining on the other hand. Process mining aims at discovering, monitoring, and improving real processes by extracting knowledge from event logs. However, as most business processes change over time (e.g. the effects of new legislation, seasonal effects and etc.), traditional process mining techniques ...

متن کاملSemantic Drift in Ontologies
Ontology evolution is the process of incrementally and consistently adapting an existing ontology to changes in the relevant domain. Even though ontology management and versioning tools are now available, they are of limited use for ontology evolution unless the desired changes are known beforehand. Ontology learning toolsets are often employed, but they require large document sets and do not t...
