Description

Class imbalance is typical across domains where proportion of one of the classes is very low. The observations belonging to such class is usually important to study as occurrence of the corresponding event is highly impactful. Such events are called Rare Events because of the rarity of their occurrence.  Loan defaults, machine failures, cyber intrusions, insurance claims are some examples of rare events. It is very tough to classify a rare event correctly. Some mechanisms are there which are applied on the dataset or some improvisations are done on the classification algorithms to deal with this challenge.
