New PAI-KNN Classifier Adapts to Imbalanced Data Streams with Concept Drift

Researchers have introduced PAI-KNN, a novel k-nearest neighbor classifier designed to handle imbalanced data streams that experience concept drift. Unlike existing methods that modify memory or data, PAI-KNN adapts by adjusting its decision rules at inference time using estimated class priors from recent observations. This approach, tested on various synthetic data streams, demonstrates competitive performance against state-of-the-art techniques, particularly excelling in scenarios with dynamic class imbalance and concept drift.
