A naïve way to solve this problem would be to compare the proportion of buyers between the exposed and unexposed groups, using a simple test for equality of means. Choosing the tuning parameters for data-adaptive methods such as regression trees and MARS is the subject of a large number of research articles and books.

In this article we discuss why fitting models on imbalanced datasets is problematic, and how class imbalance is typically addressed. Their tests are performed using C4.5-generated note that this variant “performs worse than plain under-sampling based on AUC” when tested on the Adult dataset (Dua & Graff, 2017). Chawla et al.,
