Streamingml

kMeansIncremental (Stream Processor)

Performs K-Means clustering on a streaming data set. Data points can be of any dimension and the dimensionality is calculated from number of parameters. All data points to be processed by a query should be of the same dimensionality. The Euclidean distance is taken as the distance metric. The algorithm resembles Sequential K-Means Clustering at https://www.cs.princeton.edu/courses/archive/fall08/cos436/Duda/C/sk_means.htm

Syntax

streamingml:kMeansIncremental(<INT> no.of.clusters, <DOUBLE> decay.rate, <DOUBLE|FLOAT|INT|LONG> model.features)

QUERY PARAMETERS

Name Description Default Value Possible Data Types Optional Dynamic
no.of.clusters The assumed number of natural clusters in the data set. INT No No
decay.rate this is the decay rate of old data compared to new data. Value of this will be in [0,1]. 0 means only old data used and1 will mean that only new data is used 0.01 DOUBLE Yes No
model.features This is a variable length argument. Depending on the dimensionality of data points we will receive coordinates as features along each axis. DOUBLE
FLOAT
INT
LONG
No No
Extra Return Attributes
Name Description Possible Types
euclideanDistanceToClosestCentroid Represents the Euclidean distance between the current data point and the closest centroid. DOUBLE
closestCentroidCoordinate This is a variable length attribute. Depending on the dimensionality(D) we will return closestCentroidCoordinate1, closestCentroidCoordinate2,... closestCentroidCoordinateD which are the d dimensional coordinates of the closest centroid from the model to the current event. This is the prediction result and this represents the cluster to which the current event belongs to. DOUBLE

Examples EXAMPLE 1

define stream InputStream (x double, y double);
@info(name = 'query1')
from InputStream#streamingml:kMeansIncremental(2, 0.2, x, y)
select closestCentroidCoordinate1, closestCentroidCoordinate2, x, y
insert into OutputStream;

This is an example where user provides the decay rate. First two events will be used to initiate the model since the required number of clusters is specified as 2. After the first event itself prediction would start.

EXAMPLE 2

define stream InputStream (x double, y double);
@info(name = 'query1')
from InputStream#streamingml:kMeansIncremental(2, x, y)
select closestCentroidCoordinate1, closestCentroidCoordinate2, x, y
insert into OutputStream;

This is an example where user doesnt give the decay rate so the default value will be used

kMeansMiniBatch (Stream Processor)

Performs K-Means clustering on a streaming data set. Data points can be of any dimension and the dimensionality is calculated from number of parameters. All data points to be processed in a single query should be of the same dimensionality. The Euclidean distance is taken as the distance metric. The algorithm resembles mini-batch K-Means. (refer Web-Scale K-Means Clustering by D.Sculley, Google, Inc.).

Syntax

streamingml:kMeansMiniBatch(<INT> no.of.clusters, <DOUBLE> decay.rate, <INT> maximum.iterations, <INT> no.of.events.to.retrain, <DOUBLE|FLOAT|INT|LONG> model.features)

QUERY PARAMETERS

Name Description Default Value Possible Data Types Optional Dynamic
no.of.clusters The assumed number of natural clusters in the data set. INT No No
decay.rate this is the decay rate of old data compared to new data. Value of this will be in [0,1]. 0 means only old data used and1 will mean that only new data is used 0.01 DOUBLE Yes No
maximum.iterations Number of iterations, the process iterates until the number of maximum iterations is reached or the centroids do not change 50 INT Yes No
no.of.events.to.retrain number of events to recalculate cluster centers. 20 INT Yes No
model.features This is a variable length argument. Depending on the dimensionality of data points we will receive coordinates as features along each axis. DOUBLE
FLOAT
INT
LONG
No No
Extra Return Attributes
Name Description Possible Types
euclideanDistanceToClosestCentroid Represents the Euclidean distance between the current data point and the closest centroid. DOUBLE
closestCentroidCoordinate This is a variable length attribute. Depending on the dimensionality(d) we will return closestCentroidCoordinate1 to closestCentroidCoordinated which are the d dimensional coordinates of the closest centroid from the model to the current event. This is the prediction result and this represents the cluster towhich the current event belongs to. DOUBLE

Examples EXAMPLE 1

define stream InputStream (x double, y double);
@info(name = 'query1')
from InputStream#streamingml:kMeansMiniBatch(2, 0.2, 10, 20, x, y)
select closestCentroidCoordinate1, closestCentroidCoordinate2, x, y
insert into OutputStream;

This is an example where user gives all three hyper parameters. first 20 events will be consumed to build the model and from the 21st event prediction would start

EXAMPLE 2

define stream InputStream (x double, y double);
@info(name = 'query1')
from InputStream#streamingml:kMeansMiniBatch(2, x, y)
select closestCentroidCoordinate1, closestCentroidCoordinate2, x, y
insert into OutputStream;

This is an example where user has not specified hyper params. So default values will be used.

perceptronClassifier (Stream Processor)

This extension predicts using a linear binary classification Perceptron model.

Syntax

streamingml:perceptronClassifier(<STRING> model.name, <DOUBLE> model.bias, <DOUBLE> model.threshold, <DOUBLE> model.features)

QUERY PARAMETERS

Name Description Default Value Possible Data Types Optional Dynamic
model.name The name of the model to be used. STRING No No
model.bias The bias of the Perceptron algorithm. 0.0 DOUBLE No No
model.threshold The threshold that separates the two classes. The value specified must be between zero and one. The output is a probability. DOUBLE No No
model.features The features of the model that need to be attributes of the stream. DOUBLE No No
Extra Return Attributes
Name Description Possible Types
prediction The predicted value (true/false) BOOL
confidenceLevel The probability of the prediction DOUBLE

Examples EXAMPLE 1

define stream StreamA (attribute_0 double, attribute_1 double, attribute_2 double, attribute_3 double);

from StreamA#streamingml:perceptronClassifier('model1',0.0,0.5, attribute_0, attribute_1, attribute_2, attribute_3) 
insert all events into OutputStream;

This query uses a Perceptron model named model1 with a 0.0 bias and a 0.5 threshold learning rate to predict the label of the feature vector represented by attribute_0, attribute_1, attribute_2, and attribute_3. The predicted label (true/false) is emitted to the OutputStream streamalong with the prediction confidence level(probability) and the feature vector. As a result, the OutputStream stream is defined as follows: (attribute_0 double, attribute_1 double, attribute_2 double, attribute_3 double, prediction bool, confidenceLevel double).

EXAMPLE 2

define stream StreamA (attribute_0 double, attribute_1 double, attribute_2 double, attribute_3 double);

from StreamA#streamingml:perceptronClassifier('model1',0.0, attribute_0, attribute_1, attribute_2, attribute_3) 
insert all events into OutputStream;

This query uses a Perceptron model named model1 with a 0.0 bias to predict the label of the feature vector represented by attribute_0, attribute_1, attribute_2, and attribute_3. The prediction(true/false) is emitted to the OutputStreamstream along with the prediction confidence level(probability) and the feature. As a result, the OutputStream stream is defined as follows: (attribute_0 double, attribute_1 double, attribute_2 double, attribute_3 double, prediction bool, confidenceLevel double).

EXAMPLE 3

define stream StreamA (attribute_0 double, attribute_1 double, attribute_2 double, attribute_3 double);

from StreamA#streamingml:perceptronClassifier(`model1`, attribute_0, attribute_1, attribute_2) 
insert all events into OutputStream;

This query uses a Perceptron model named model1 with a default 0.0 bias to predict the label of the feature vector represented by attribute_0, attribute_1, and attribute_2. The predicted probability is emitted to the OutputStream stream along with the feature vector. As a result, the OutputStream is defined as follows: (attribute_0 double, attribute_1 double, attribute_2 double, attribute_3 double, prediction bool, confidenceLevel double).
