Abstract
Case-Based Reasoning (CBR) learns new knowledge from data and so can cope with changing environments. CBR is very different from modelbased systems since it can learn incrementally as new data is available, storing new cases in its casebase. This means that it can benefit from readily available new data, but also case-base maintenance (CBM) is essential to manage the cases, deleting and compacting the case-base. In the 50th anniversary of CNN (considered the first CBM algorithm), new CBM methods are proposed to deal with the new requirements of Big Data scenarios. In this paper, we present an accessible historic perspective of CBM and we classify and analyse the most recent approaches to deal with these requirements.
