In imbalance: Preprocessing Algorithms for Imbalanced Datasets

Description

Wrapper that encapsulates a collection of algorithms to perform a class balancing preprocessing task for binary class datasets

Usage

oversample(
  dataset,
  ratio = NA,
  method = c("RACOG", "wRACOG", "PDFOS", "RWO", "ADASYN", "ANSMOTE", "SMOTE", "MWMOTE",
    "BLSMOTE", "DBSMOTE", "SLMOTE", "RSLSMOTE"),
  filtering = FALSE,
  classAttr = "Class",
  wrapper = c("KNN", "C5.0"),
  ...
)

Arguments

dataset	A binary class data.frame to balance.
ratio	Number between 0 and 1 indicating the desired ratio between minority examples and majority ones, that is, the quotient size of minority class/size of majority class. There are methods, such as ADASYN or wRACOG to which this parameter does not apply.
method	A character corresponding to method to apply. Possible methods are: RACOG, wRACOG, PDFOS, RWO, ADASYN, ANSMOTE, SMOTE, MWMOTE, BLSMOTE, DBSMOTE, SLMOTE, RSLSMOTE
filtering	Logical (TRUE or FALSE) indicating wheter to apply filtering of oversampled instances with neater algorithm.
classAttr	character. Indicates the class attribute from dataset. Must exist in it.
wrapper	A character corresponding to wrapper to apply if selected method is wracog. Possibilities are: "C5.0" and "KNN".
...	Further arguments to apply in selected method

Value

A balanced data.frame with same structure as dataset, containing both original instances and new ones

Examples

data(glass0)

# Oversample glass0 to get an imbalance ratio of 0.8
imbalanceRatio(glass0)
# 0.4861111
newDataset <- oversample(glass0, ratio = 0.8, method = "MWMOTE")
imbalanceRatio(newDataset)
newDataset <- oversample(glass0, method = "ADASYN")
newDataset <- oversample(glass0, ratio = 0.8, method = "SMOTE")
