چکیده

Recently, the class imbalance problem in neural networks, is receiving growing attention in works of machine learning and data mining. This problem appears when the samples of some classes are much smaller than those in the other classes. The classes with small size can be ignored in the learning process and the convergence of these classes is very slow. This paper studies empirically the class imbalance problem in the context of the RBF neural network trained with backpropagation algorithm. We propose to introduce a cost function in the training process to compensate imbalance class and one strategy to reduce the impact of the cost function in the data probability distribution.

Improving the Classification Accuracy of RBF and MLP Neural Networks Trained with Imbalanced Samples

In practice, numerous applications exist where the data are imbalanced. It supposes a damage in the performance of the classifier. In this paper, an appropriate metric for imbalanced data is applied as a filtering technique in the context of Nearest Neighbor rule, to improve the classification accuracy in RBF and MLP neural networks. We diminish atypical or noisy patterns of the majority-class ...

Improvement of Learning Algorithm for the Multi-instance Multi-label RBF Neural Networks Trained with Imbalanced Samples

Multi-instance multi-label learning (MIML) is a novel learning framework where each sample is represented by multiple instances and associated with multiple class labels. In several learning situations, the multi-instance multi-label RBF neural networks (MIMLRBF) can exploit connections between the instances and the labels of an MIML example directly. However, it is quite often that the numbers...
