We propose Enhash, a fast ensemble learner that detects concept drift in a data stream. A stream may consist of abrupt, gradual, virtual, or recurring events, or a mixture of various types of drift. Enhash employs projection hash to insert an incoming sample. We show empirically that the proposed method has competitive performance to existing ensemble learners in much lesser time. Also, Enhash has moderate resource requirements. Experiments relevant to performance comparison were performed on 6 artificial and 4 real data sets consisting of various types of drifts.
