Subject: Search for time series data for concept drift detecting algorithm
Final completion of the Ph.D. is almost in sight.  I am on the search
for some data with a time stamp attribute that has got concept drift
occurring within it to complete the experimentations.

The on-line learning algorithm being used is a tree induction
classifier which detects concept drift in the presence of noise and
then removes invalid examples.  A large database would be preferable
to aid extraction of batches.

Reference of work to date:

Classifier under Concept Drift", Intelligent Data Analysis 3 (1999)

Detection", Spatio-Temporal Data Mining - TSDM2000, published in LNAI
