Oversampling method based on GAN for tabular binary classification problems
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Data-imbalanced problems are present in many applications. A big gap in the number of samples in different classes induces classifiers to skew to the majority class and thus diminish the performance of learning and quality of obtained results. Most data level imbalanced learning approaches generate new samples only using the information associated with the minority samples through linearly generating or data distribution fitting. Different from these algorithms, we propose a novel oversampling method based on generative adversarial networks (GANs), named OS-GAN. In this method, GAN is assigned to learn the distribution characteristics of the minority class from some selected majority samples but not random noise. As a result, samples released by the trained generator carry information of both majority and minority classes. Furthermore, the central regularization makes the distribution of all synthetic samples not restricted to the domain of the minority class, which can improve the generalization of learning models or algorithms. Experimental results reported on 14 datasets and one high-dimensional dataset show that OS-GAN outperforms 14 commonly used resampling techniques in terms of G-mean, accuracy and F1-score.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
