description The increasing volume and velocity of the continuously generated data (data stream) challenge machine learning algorithms, which must evolve to fit real-world problems. The data stream clustering algorithms face issues such as the rapidly increasing volume of the data, the variety of the number of clusters, and their shapes. The present work aims to improve the accuracy of sequential clustering batches of data streams for scenarios in which clusters evolve dynamically and continuously, automatically estimating their number. In order to achieve this goal, three evolutionary algorithms are presented, along with three novel algorithms designed to deal with clusters of normal distribution based on goodness-of-fit tests in the context of scalable batch stream clustering with automatic estimation of the number of clusters. All of them are developed on top of MapReduce, Discretized-Stream models, and the most recent MPC frameworks to provide scalability, reliability, resilience, and flexibility. The proposed algorithms are experimentally compared with state-of-the-art methods and present the best results for accuracy for normally distributed data sets, reaching their goal.
