Abstract

Traditional machine learning classification techniques are essentially based on the premise that the future distribution of the data remains consistent to the distribution presented in the training set, i.e.,the data distribution is stationary along time. However, over the past few years, more and more new applications need to process not only increasing volumes of data, but also data that is presented continually as a stream. In this scenario the aforementioned assumption is rarely satisfied; future data distribution often changes while data stream processing demands high costs to traditional algorithms, such of processing time and memory. A particular classification problem, which results from such non-stationary datastream, regards identifying previously unknown classes over the stream- a task known as novelty detection. Facing this problem, novelty detection algorithms must conciliate essential, but difficult to gather features, like accuracy and stability at classification performance, processing data instances only once and providing low associated costs with processing time and memory. This work aims at investigating the state of the art methods on novelty detections as well as proposing new ones. The studied and developed methods should be applied to real industrial applications, such as in monitoring and controlling tasks.
