SMOTE
An oversampling technique for handling class-imbalanced datasets that generates new synthetic samples by interpolating between existing minority-class samples, balancing the data distribution and improving a classification model's ability to recognize the minority class.
Timeline (last 90 days)
SMOTE was proposed by Chawla et al. in 2002.
The research found that PCA contributes more to overall model performance than SMOTE.
SMOTE can improve recall but may introduce false positives, thereby making a trade-off in precision.
The research employs SMOTE (Synthetic Minority Over-sampling Technique) and PCA (Principal Component Analysis) for data preprocessing.
The research designs four hybrid preprocessing configurations for comparison: normalization only, SMOTE balancing, PCA transformation, and SMOTE combined with PCA.
KNN is best suited to the preprocessing approach combining SMOTE and PCA.
In high-dimensional medical data, assigning higher class weights to minority classes or using adaptive loss functions such as Focal Loss is generally more robust than SMOTE oversampling.
When dealing with highly imbalanced classification datasets, one should consider SMOTE oversampling or shifting the evaluation metric from accuracy to F1 score.
