As machine learning practitioners, we often encounter imbalanced datasets in which one class has considerably fewer instances than the other. Many machine learning algorithms assume an equilibrium between majority and minority classes, leading to suboptimal performance on imbalanced data. This comprehensive guide helps you address this class imbalance to significantly improve model performance.
Machine Learning for Imbalanced Data begins by introducing you to the challenges posed by imbalanced datasets and the importance of addressing these issues. It then guides you through techniques that enhance the performance of classical machine learning models when using imbalanced data, including various sampling and cost-sensitive learning methods.
As you progress, you'll delve into similar and more advanced techniques for deep learning models, employing PyTorch as the primary framework. Throughout the book, hands-on examples will provide working and reproducible code that'll demonstrate the practical implementation of each technique.
By the end of this book, you'll be adept at identifying and addressing class imbalances and confidently applying various techniques, including sampling, cost-sensitive techniques, and threshold adjustment, while using traditional machine learning or deep learning models.
Take your machine learning expertise to the next level with this essential guide, utilizing libraries like imbalanced-learn, PyTorch, scikit-learn, pandas, and NumPy to maximize model performance and tackle imbalanced dataKey FeaturesUnderstand how to use modern machine learning frameworks with detailed explanations, illustrations, and code samplesLearn cutting-edge deep learning techniques to overcome data imbalanceExplore different methods for dealing with skewed data in ML and DL applicationsPurchase of the print or Kindle book includes a free eBook in the PDF formatBook DescriptionAs machine learning practitioners, we often encounter imbalanced datasets in which one class has considerably fewer instances than the other.
