imblearn.over_sampling.SMOTE

class imblearn.over_sampling.SMOTE(ratio='auto', random_state=None, k=None, k_neighbors=5, m=None, m_neighbors=10, out_step=0.5, kind='regular', svm_estimator=None, n_jobs=1)[source][source]

Class to perform over-sampling using SMOTE.

This object is an implementation of SMOTE - Synthetic Minority Over-sampling Technique, and the variants Borderline SMOTE 1, 2 and SVM-SMOTE.

Parameters:

ratio : str, dict, or callable, optional (default=’auto’)

Ratio to use for resampling the data set.

  • If str, has to be one of: (i) 'minority': resample the minority class; (ii) 'majority': resample the majority class, (iii) 'not minority': resample all classes apart of the minority class, (iv) 'all': resample all classes, and (v) 'auto': correspond to 'all' with for over-sampling methods and 'not minority' for under-sampling methods. The classes targeted will be over-sampled or under-sampled to achieve an equal number of sample with the majority or minority class.
  • If dict, the keys correspond to the targeted classes. The values correspond to the desired number of samples.
  • If callable, function taking y and returns a dict. The keys correspond to the targeted classes. The values correspond to the desired number of samples.

random_state : int, RandomState instance or None, optional (default=None)

If int, random_state is the seed used by the random number generator; If RandomState instance, random_state is the random number generator; If None, the random number generator is the RandomState instance used by np.random.

k : int, optional (default=None)

Number of nearest neighbours to used to construct synthetic samples.

Deprecated since version 0.2: k is deprecated from 0.2 and will be replaced in 0.4 Use k_neighbors instead.

k_neighbors : int or object, optional (default=5)

If int, number of nearest neighbours to used to construct synthetic samples. If object, an estimator that inherits from sklearn.neighbors.base.KNeighborsMixin that will be used to find the k_neighbors.

m : int, optional (default=None)

Number of nearest neighbours to use to determine if a minority sample is in danger. Used with kind={'borderline1', 'borderline2', 'svm'}.

Deprecated since version 0.2: m is deprecated from 0.2 and will be replaced in 0.4 Use m_neighbors instead.

m_neighbors : int int or object, optional (default=10)

If int, number of nearest neighbours to use to determine if a minority sample is in danger. Used with kind={'borderline1', 'borderline2', 'svm'}. If object, an estimator that inherits from sklearn.neighbors.base.KNeighborsMixin that will be used to find the k_neighbors.

out_step : float, optional (default=0.5)

Step size when extrapolating. Used with kind='svm'.

kind : str, optional (default=’regular’)

The type of SMOTE algorithm to use one of the following options: 'regular', 'borderline1', 'borderline2', 'svm'.

svm_estimator : object, optional (default=SVC())

If kind='svm', a parametrized sklearn.svm.SVC classifier can be passed.

n_jobs : int, optional (default=1)

The number of threads to open if possible.

Notes

See the original papers: [R31], [R32], [R33] for more details.

Supports mutli-class resampling.

Find the classes statistics before to perform sampling.

Parameters:

X : ndarray, shape (n_samples, n_features)

Matrix containing the data which have to be sampled.

y : ndarray, shape (n_samples, )

Corresponding label for each sample in X.

Returns:

self : object,

Return self.

fit_sample(X, y)[source]

y : ndarray, shape (n_samples, )

Corresponding label for each sample in X.

Returns:

X_resampled : ndarray, shape (n_samples_new, n_features)

The array containing the resampled data.

y_resampled : ndarray, shape (n_samples_new)

The corresponding label of X_resampled

get_params(deep=True)[source]

Get parameters for this estimator.

Parameters:

If True, will return the parameters for this estimator and contained subobjects that are estimators.

Returns:

Parameter names mapped to their values.

sample(X, y)[source]

Resample the dataset.

Parameters:

X : ndarray, shape (n_samples, n_features)

Matrix containing the data which have to be sampled.

y : ndarray, shape (n_samples, )
