Cover Story: Concept drift, a phenomenon that can lead to the degradation of classifier performance over time, is commonly addressed by retraining the classifier without considering the properties of drift. Drift descriptors provide a means to explain how new concepts replace existing ones, offering valuable insights into the nature of drift. In this context, this work examines the impact of four descriptors: severity, recurrence, frequency, and speed. The findings reveal three key conclusions: (i) reaction strategies must be tailored to different types of drift; (ii) severity, recurrence, and frequency provide the highest impact on drift, whereas speed has minimal influence; and (iii) there is a need to incorporate mechanisms for describing concept drift into the strategies designed to address it. View this paper
