ML internals: Synthetic Minority Oversampling (SMOTE) Technique

Domino Data Lab

The problem with this approach is that in highly imbalanced sets it can easily lead to a situation where most of the data has to be discarded, and it has been firmly established that when it comes to machine learning data should not be easily thrown out (Banko and Brill, 2001; Halevy et al., Their tests are performed using C4.5-generated

Skater provides a wide range of algorithms that can be used for visual interpretation (e.g. After forming the X and y variables, we split the data into training and test sets. Looking at the target vector in the training subset, we notice that our training data is highly imbalanced. 1 570 0 230 Name: credit, dtype: int64.

To make sure the reliability is high, there are various techniques to perform – the first of them being the control tests, which should have similar results when reproducing an experiment in similar conditions. A 2009 investigative survey by Dr. Daniele Fanelli from The University of Edinburgh found that 33.7%
