The Novelty Detection Approach for Different Degrees of Class Imbalance
نویسندگان
چکیده
We show that the novelty detection approach is a viable solution to the class imbalance and examine which approach is suitable for different degrees of imbalance. In experiments using SVM-based classifiers, when the imbalance is extreme, novelty detectors are more accurate than balanced and unbalanced binary classifiers. However, with a relatively moderate imbalance, balanced binary classifiers should be employed. In addition, novelty detectors are more effective when the classes have a non-symmetrical class relationship.

Software defects detection is one of the most important challenges of software development and it is the most prohibitive process in software development. The early detection of fault-prone modules helps software project managers to allocate the limited cost, time, and effort of developers for testing the defect-prone modules more intensively. In this paper, according to the importance of soft...
متن کاملBreast Cancer Diagnosis from Perspective of Class Imbalance
Introduction: Breast cancer is the second cause of mortality among women. Early detection is the only rescue to reduce the risk of breast cancer mortality. Traditional methods cannot effectively diagnose tumor since they are based on the assumption of well-balanced dataset.. However, a hybrid method can help to alleviate the two-class imbalance problem existing in the ...

Nosocomial infections (NIs) - those acquired in health care settings - represent one of the major causes of increased mortality in hospitalized patients. As they are a real problem for both patients and health authorities, the development of an effective surveillance system to monitor and detect them is of paramount importance. This paper presents a retrospective analysis of a prevalence survey...
متن کاملA Novel One Sided Feature Selection Method for Imbalanced Text Classification
The imbalance data can be seen in various areas such as text classification, credit card fraud detection, risk management, web page classification, image classification, medical diagnosis/monitoring, and biological data analysis. The classification algorithms have more tendencies to the large class and might even deal with the minority class data as the outlier data. The text data is one of t...
