imbalanced data

hi


how can I solve imbalanced problem?

I used adaboostm1 weka, but it doesn't work at all,
1. I used sampling method to balance data and performance developed but as far as I know it should be by far better methods to solve imbalanced problem.
2. Moreover, libsvm can be used in weighted mode, but I do not know how use it and tune libsvm parameters like cost weight ,....
and how it can be used in metacost?




I'd appreciate if you help me





Regards
REZA

    Hi Reza,
    just put the LibSVM learner inside the MetaCost learner. The metaCost learner is a so called Meta Learner using another, inner learning scheme.
    This time you could have simply read the manual. This is why haddock repeats it so many times. And although this IS a help forum, other people have to spend their time for giving you hints. So I think it's fair that you made your best efforts to cope with the problem yourself. And this always should include the (admittedly spare) documentation.

    Greetings,

    hi

    but it doesn't work, it seems you just disabled averagebuilder  and performance of it, I do it in my data, but again process failed message . however thanks for your time and consideration

    It really helps if you include the error message. This code works on generated examples on my machine right now. I disabled the average builder and final performance operator because that was causing the failure on the original code, as detailed in your original post.

    Must be the data then, as the generator version works. My guess is that your filter doesn't work as you think, because you use '||'  where you should use '|'.
  • m_r_nourm_r_nour Member Posts: 35 Maven
    Hi Haddock


    no, even I changed the code to as you think, but again same problem

    but:

    number of classes are 7 and by filter I reduced them to 3, but classifier apply to data as if it has 7 group because when I changed size of matrix 7
    it works.?

    so.... how can ....?


    thanks for your time
