Abstract

We present a framework to address the imbalanced data problem using semi-supervised learning. Specifically, from a supervised problem, we create a semi-supervised problem and then use a semi-supervised learning method to identify the most relevant instances to establish a well-defined training set. We present extensive experimental results, which demonstrate that the proposed framework significantly outperforms all other sampling algorithms in 67% of the cases across three different classifiers and ranks second best for the remaining 33% of the cases.
