ML internals: Synthetic Minority Oversampling (SMOTE) Technique

Domino Data Lab

Working with highly imbalanced data can be problematic in several aspects: Distorted performance metrics — In a highly imbalanced dataset, say a binary dataset with a class ratio of 98:2, an algorithm that always predicts the majority class and completely ignores the minority class will still be 98% correct. Dua, D., & Graff, C.

Skater provides a wide range of algorithms that can be used for visual interpretation (e.g. but it generally relies on measuring the entropy in the change of predictions given a perturbation of a feature.

These controlling measures are essential and should be part of any experiment or survey – unfortunately, that isn’t always the case. A 2009 investigative survey by Dr. Daniele Fanelli from The University of Edinburgh found that 33.7% This means that there is no definable justification for the placement of the visible measurement lines.
