Abstract: Learning classifiers from imbalanced and concept drifting data streams is still a challenge. Most of the current proposals focus on taking into account changes in the global imbalance ratio only and ignore the local difficulty factors, such as the minority class decomposition into sub-concepts and the presence of unsafe types of examples (borderline or rare ones). As the above factors present in the stream may deteriorate the performance of popular online classifiers, we propose extensions of resampling online bagging, namely Neighbourhood Undersampling or Oversampling Online Bagging to take better account of the presence of unsafe minority examples. The performed computational experiments with synthetic complex imbalanced data streams have shown their advantage over earlier variants of online bagging resampling ensembles.
