In many real-world pattern recognition scenarios, such as in medical applications, the corresponding classification tasks can be of an imbalanced nature. In the current study, we focus on binary, imbalanced classification tasks, i.e.~binary classification tasks in which one of the two classes is under-represented (minority class) in comparison to the other class (majority class). In the literature, many different approaches have been proposed, such as under- or oversampling, to counter class…

A Review on Ensembles for the Class Imbalance Problem: Bagging-, Boosting-, and Hybrid-Based Approaches

A taxonomy for ensemble-based methods to address the class imbalance where each proposal can be categorized depending on the inner ensemble methodology in which it is based is proposed and a thorough empirical comparison is developed by the consideration of the most significant published approaches to show whether any of them makes a difference.

SMOTE: Synthetic Minority Over-sampling Technique

A combination of the method of oversampling the minority (abnormal) class and under-sampling the majority class can achieve better classifier performance (in ROC space) and a combination of these methods and the area under the Receiver Operating Characteristic curve (AUC) and the ROC convex hull strategy is evaluated.

Class-Boundary Alignment for Imbalanced Dataset Learning

The class-boundaryalignment algorithm is proposed to augment SVMs to deal with imbalanced training-data problems posed by many emerging applications (e.g., image retrieval, video surveillance, and gene profiling).

A Simple Approach to Ordinal Classification

This paper presents a simple method that enables standard classification algorithms to make use of ordering information in class attributes and shows that it outperforms the naive approach, which treats the class values as an unordered set.

Classification of Imbalanced Data: a Review

This paper provides a review of the classification of imbalanced data regarding the application domains, the nature of the problem, the learning difficulties with standard classifier learning algorithms; the learning objectives and evaluation measures; the reported research solutions; and the class imbalance problem in the presence of multiple classes.

Detecting Ordinal Subcascades

A novel screening procedure for exhaustive evaluations of all order permutations of all subsets of classes by bounding the number of enumerations the authors have to examine is devised.

Ordinal Classification: Working Definition and Detection of Ordinal Structures

This study proposes a working definition for OC tasks, which is based on the decision boundaries of standard binary Support Vector Machines, and introduces a simple algorithm for the detection of ordinal structures.
