SLS: Safe-level SMOTE

Description

Generate synthetic positive instances using Safe-level SMOTE algorithm. Using the parameter "Safe-level" to determine the possible location of synthetic instances.

Usage

SLS(X, target, K = 5, C = 5, dupSize = 0)

Arguments

X

A data frame or matrix of numeric-attributed dataset

target

A vector of a target class attribute corresponding to a dataset X.

K

The number of nearest neighbors during sampling process

C

The number of nearest neighbors during calculating safe-level process

dupSize

The number or vector representing the desired times of synthetic minority instances over the original number of majority instances

Value

data

A resulting dataset consists of original minority instances, synthetic minority instances and original majority instances with a vector of their respective target class appended at the last column

syn_data

A set of synthetic minority instances with a vector of minority target class appended at the last column

orig_N

A set of original instances whose class is not oversampled with a vector of their target class appended at the last column

orig_P

A set of original instances whose class is oversampled with a vector of their target class appended at the last column

K

The value of parameter K for nearest neighbor process used for generating data

K_all

The value of parameter C for nearest neighbor process used for calculating safe-level

dup_size

The maximum times of synthetic minority instances over original majority instances in the oversampling

outcast

A set of original minority instances which has safe-level equal to zero and is defined as the minority outcast

eps

Unavailable for this method

method

The name of oversampling method used for this generated dataset (SLS)
