Prof. Domingos carried out some of the earliest research on mining data streams. His VFDT algorithm was the first to be capable of learning decision trees from streams while guaranteeing that the result is very close to that of batch learning, and remains the fastest decision tree learner available. He went on to generalize the ideas in VFDT to clustering, the EM algorithm, Bayesian network structure learning, and other problems. The resulting VFML toolkit is one of the best open-source resources for stream mining.
Among the number of exciting things coming together for KDD 2014, one structural change has been the merger of the Industry Practice Expo (IPE) from previous years with the Industry & Government Track. The primary reason is to ensure that scheduling and content are aligned as closely as possible,
