This renders measures like classification accuracy meaningless. note that this variant “performs worse than plain under-sampling based on AUC” when tested on the Adult dataset (Dua & Graff, 2017). The use of multiple measurements in taxonomic problems. Indeed, in the original paper Chawla et al. Machine Learning, 57–78.
