Incremental Ant-Miner Classifier for Online Big Data Analytics.

Internet of Things (IoT) environments produce large amounts of data that are challenging to analyze. The most challenging aspect is reducing the quantity of consumed resources and time required to retrain a machine learning model as new data records arrive. Therefore, for big data analytics in IoT environments where datasets are highly dynamic, evolving over time, it is highly advised to adopt an online (also called incremental) machine learning model that can analyze incoming data instantaneously, rather than an offline model (also called static), that should be retrained on the entire dataset as new records arrive.
