“…All the variables in X −1,j and X 1,j have the class labels −1 (Majority) and 1 (Minority), respectively. We set five kinds of sizes, (n p , n n ) = (30,30), (15,30), (12,30), (6,30), and (3, 30) to illustrate the performance of different algorithms in different-sized data. b = 1, 2, 2.5, 5, 10 for these five cases and a larger b indicates a more severely imbalanced dataset.…”
