Cost-sensitive call classification
نویسنده
چکیده
We present an efficient and effective method which extends the Boosting family of classifiers to allow the weighted classes. Typically classifiers do not treat individual classes separately. For most real world applications, this is not the case, not all classes have the same importance. The accuracy of a particular class can be more critical than others. In this paper we extend the mathematical formulation for Boosting to weigh the classes differently during training. We have evaluated this method for call classification in AT&T spoken language understanding system. Our results indicate significant improvements in the “important” classes without a significant loss in the overall performance.

Many real-world data mining applications need varying cost for different types of classification errors and thus call for cost-sensitive classification algorithms. Existing algorithms for cost-sensitive classification are successful in terms of minimizing the cost, but can result in a high error rate as the trade-off. The high error rate holds back the practical use of those algorithms. In this...
