Abstract
The data distribution is often associated with a priori-known probability, and the occurrence probability of interest events is small, so a large amount of imbalanced data appears in sociology, economics, engineering, and various other fields. The existing over- and under-sampling methods are widely used in imbalanced data classification problems, but over-sampling leads to overfitting, and under-sampling ignores the effective information. We propose a new sampling design algorithm called the neighbor grid of boundary mixed-sampling (NGBM), which focuses on the boundary information. This paper obtains the classification boundary information through grid boundary domain identification, thereby determining the importance of the samples. Based on this premise, the synthetic minority oversampling technique is applied to the boundary grid, and random under-sampling is applied to the other grids. With the help of this mixed sampling strategy, more important classification boundary information, especially for positive sample information identification is extracted. Numerical simulations and real data analysis are used to discuss the parameter-setting strategy of the NGBM and illustrate the advantages of the proposed NGBM in the imbalanced data, as well as practical applications.
