Detecting the Change of Clustering Structure in Categorical Data Streams
Keke Chen, Ling Liu · 2006
Analyzing clustering structures in data streams can provide critical information for making decision in realtime. In this paper, we present a framework for detecting the change of critical clustering structure in categorical data streams. The framework consists of the Hierarchical Entropy Tree structure (HE-Tree) and the extended ACE clustering algorithm. HE-Tree can efficiently capture the entropy property of the categorical data streams and allow us to draw precise clustering information from the data stream for high-quality BkPLots with the extended ACE algorithm.
