Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleCombining SMOTE and OVA with Deep Learning and Ensemble Classifiers for Multiclass ImbalancedRattanawadee PanthongThe classification of real-world problems alwaysconsists of imbalanced and multiclass datasets. A dataset having unbalanced andmultiple classes will have an impact on the pattern of the classification modeland the classification accuracy, which will be decreased. Hence,oversampling method keeps the class of dataset balanced and avoids theoverfitting problem. The purposes of the study were to handle multiclassimbalanced datasets and to improve … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 18, Issue 8 · 23 Aug 2022 · 6,096 accessesView PDFCite
