Concept Tracking and Adaptation for Drifting Data Streams under Extreme Verification Latency
Authors: Jesus L. Lobo,Miren Nekane Bilbao,Ana I. Torre-Bastida,Javier Del Ser,Maria Arostegi
When analyzing large-scale streaming data towards resolving classification problems, it is often assumed that true labels of the incoming data are available right after being predicted. This assumption allows online learning models to efficiently detect and accommodate non-stationarities in the…

A Study of the Predictive Earliness of Traffic Flow Characterization for Software Defined Networking
Authors: Javier Del Ser,Hegoi Garitaonandia,Juanjo Unzilla,Eduardo Jacob
Software Defined Networking (SDN) is a new network paradigm that decouples the control from the data plane in order to provide a more structured approach to develop applications and services. In traditional networks the routing of flows is defined by masks and tends to be rather static. With SDN,…

The risk of sub-optimal use of Open Source NLP Software: UKB is inadvertently state-of-the-art in knowledge-based WSD
Authors: Oier Lopez de Lacalle,Aitor Soroa,Eneko Agirre
UKB is an open source collection of programs for performing, among other tasks, knowledge-based Word Sense Disambiguation (WSD). Since it was released in 2009 it has been often used out-of-the-box in sub-optimal settings. We show that nine years later it is the state-of-the-art on knowledge-based…

The Relationship Between Graphical Representations of Regular Vine Copulas and Polytrees
Authors: Diana Carrera,Jose A. Lozano,Jose A. Lozano,Roberto Santana
Graphical models (GMs) are powerful statistical tools for modeling the (in)dependencies among random variables. In this paper, we focus on two different types of graphical models: R-vines and polytrees. Regarding the graphical representation of these models, the former uses a sequence of undirected…

Drift Detection over Non-stationary Data Streams Using Evolving Spiking Neural Networks
Authors: Jesus L. Lobo,Ibai Laña,Miren Nekane Bilbao,Nikola Kasabov,Javier Del Ser,Javier Del Ser
Drift detection in changing environments is a key factor for those active adaptive methods which require trigger mechanisms for drift adaptation. Most approaches are relied on a base learner that provides accuracies or error rates to be analyzed by an algorithm. In this work we propose the use of…

Removing Piston-driven Mechanical Chest Compression Artefacts from the ECG
Authors: Unai Irusta,Iraia Isasi,Erik Alonso,Jo Kramer-Johansen,Unai Ayala,Elisabete Aramendi,Trygve Eftestøl
Piston-driven mechanical chest compression (CC) devices induce a quasi-periodic artefact in the ECG, making rhythm diagnosis unreliable. Data from 230 out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) patients were collected in which CCs were delivered using the piston driven LUCAS-2 device. Underlying rhythms…
