Imbalanced data classification problems endeavor to find a dependent variable in a skewed data distribution. Imbalanced data classification problems present in many application areas like, medical disease diagnosis, risk management, fault-detection, etc. It is a challenging problem in the field of machine learning and data mining. In this paper, K-Means cluster based oversampling algorithm is proposed to solve the imbalanced data classification problem. The experimental results show that the proposed algorithm outperforms the existing oversampling algorithms of previous studies.


Some true applications, for example, content arrangement and sub-cell confinement of protein successions, include multi-mark grouping with imbalanced information. Different types of traditional approaches are introduced to describe the relation of hubristic and undertaking formations, classification of different attributes with imbalanced for different uncertain data sets. Here this addresses the issues by utilizing the min-max particular system. The min-max measured system can break down a multi-mark issue into a progression of little two-class sub-issues, which would then be able to be consolidated by two straightforward standards. Additionally present a few decay procedures to improve the presentation of min-max particular systems. Trial results on sub-cellular restriction demonstrate that our strategy has preferable speculation execution over customary SVMs in settling the multi-name and imbalanced information issues. In addition, it is additionally a lot quicker than customary SVMs


Imbalanced data classification is a critical and challenging problem in both data mining and machine learning. Imbalanced data classification problems present in many application areas like rare medical diagnosis, risk management, fault-detection, etc. The traditional classification algorithms yield poor results in imbalanced classification problems. In this paper, K-Means cluster based undersampling ensemble algorithm is proposed to solve the imbalanced data classification problem. The proposed method combines K-Means cluster based undersampling and boosting method. The experimental results show that the proposed algorithm outperforms the other sampling ensemble algorithms of previous studies.

Imbalanced datasets are frequently found in many real applications. Resampling is one of the effective solutions due to generating a relatively balanced class distribution. In this paper, a hybrid sampling SVM approach is proposed combining an oversampling technique and an undersampling technique for addressing the imbalanced data classification problem. The proposed approach first uses an undersampling technique to delete some samples of the majority class with less classification information and then applies an oversampling technique to gradually create some new positive samples. Thus, a balanced training dataset is generated to replace the original imbalanced training dataset. Finally, through experimental results on the real-world datasets, our proposed approach has the ability to identify informative samples and deal with the imbalanced data classification problem.
