In the process of network traffic classification, the traditional model has poor classification on minority classes and cannot be updated frequently and timely. In order to solve the problems, a network Traffic Classification Model based on Ensemble Learning (ELTCM) was proposed. First, in order to reduce the impact of class imbalance problem, feature metrics biased towards minority classes were defined according to the class distribution information, and the weighted symmetric uncertainty and Approximate Markov Blanket (AMB) were used to reduce the dimensionality of network traffic features. Then, early concept drift detection was introduced to enhance the model's ability to cope with the changes in traffic features as the network changed. At the same time, incremental learning was used to improve the flexibility of model update training. Experimental results on real traffic datasets show that compared with the Internet Traffic Classification based on C4.5 Decision Tree (DTITC) and Classification Model for Concept Drift Detection based on ErrorRate (ERCDD), the proposed ELTCM has the average overall accuracy increased by 1.13% and 0.26% respectively, and the classification performance of minority classes all higher than those of the models. ELTCM has high generalization ability, and can effectively improve the classification performance of minority classes without sacrificing the overall classification accuracy.
