Random undersampling and oversampling are simple but well-known resampling methods applied to solve the problem of class imbalance. In this paper we show that the random oversampling method can produce better classification results than the random undersampling method, since the oversampling can increase the minority class recognition rate by sacrificing less amount of majority class recognition rate than the undersampling method. However, the random oversampling method would increase the computational cost associated with the SVM training largely due to the addition of new training examples. In this paper we present an investigation carried out to develop efficient resampling methods that can produce comparable classification results to the random oversampling results, but with the use of less amount of data. The main idea of the proposed methods is to first select the most informative data …
