However, a multitude of practical applications only supply approximate measurements. Usually, the estimated errors of the measurements are also available and they are valuable supplemental information for the classification process. Therefore, the development of highly efficient algorithms dealing with uncertain examples has emerged as an exciting new direction in stream data mining literature. In this study, an ensemble classification model ECluds is built from data streams having uncertain attribute values. ECluds applies supervised k-means clustering algorithm on uncertain data stream chunks, then extracts sufficient statistics into micro-clusters. An ensemble of micro-clusters performs classification on test examples using nearest neighbor algorithm and majority voting strategy. Our experiments on synthetic and real-world datasets show that ECluds is highly scalable for data streams and more effective than a purely deterministic method.]]>Aggarwal, C.C. and P.S.
