Advances in data acquisition have allowed large data collections of millions of time varying records in the form of data streams. The challenge is to effectively process the stream data with limited resources while maintaining sufficient historical information to define the changes and patterns over time. This paper describes an evidence-based approach that uses representative points to incrementally process stream data by using a graph based method to cluster points based on connectivity and density. Critical cluster features are archived in repositories to allow the algorithm to cope with recurrent information and to provide a rich history of relevant cluster changes if analysis of past data is required. We demonstrate our work with both synthetic and real world data sets.
