Imbalanced-learn is a python package offering a number of re-sampling

techniques commonly used in datasets showing strong between-class
imbalance. It is compatible with scikit-learn and is part of scikit-learn-contrib
projects. Some of its Applications are in:
Bioinformatics
Medical imaging: diseases versus healthy
Social sciences: prediction of academic dropout
Web services: Service Level Agreement violation prediction
Security services: fraud detection
Most classification algorithms will only perform optimally when the number of
samples of each class is roughly the same. Highly skewed datasets, where the
minority is heavily outnumbered by one or more classes, have proven to be a
challenge while at the same time becoming more and more common. One way of
addressing this issue is by re-sampling the dataset as to offset this imbalance
with the hope of arriving at a more robust and fair decision boundary than you
would otherwise.
Re-sampling techniques are divided in two categories:
1. Under-sampling the majority class(es).
2. Over-sampling the minority class.
3. Combining over- and under-sampling.
4. Create ensemble balanced sets.
imbalanced-learn is an open-source python toolbox aiming at providing a wide
range of methods to cope with the problem of imbalanced dataset frequently
encountered in machine learning and pattern recognition. The implemented
state-of-the-art methods can be categorized into 4 groups:
(i) under-sampling,

The toolbox only depends on numpy , scipy, and scikit-learn and is distributed

under MIT license. Furthermore, it is fully compatible with scikit-learn and is part
of the scikit-learn-contrib supported project.
Installation
imbalanced-learn is tested to work under Python 2.7, Python 3.5 and 3.6. The
dependency requirements are based on the last scikit-learn release:
scipy (>=0.13.3)
numpy (>=1.8.2)
scikit-learn (>=0.19.0)
imbalanced-learn is currently available on the PyPi’s repository and you can
install it via pip:
pip install -U imbalanced-learn
Example
The example here illustrates a sampling technique.
>>> from collections import Counter
>>> from sklearn.datasets import make_classification
>>> X, y = make_classification(n_samples=5000, n_features=2, n_informative=2,
... n_redundant=0, n_repeated=0, n_classes=3,
... n_clusters_per_class=1,
... weights=[0.01, 0.05, 0.94],
... class_sep=0.8, random_state=0)
>>> print(sorted(Counter(y).items()))
[(0, 64), (1, 262), (2, 4674)]
>>> from imblearn.under_sampling import ClusterCentroids
>>> cc = ClusterCentroids(random_state=0)
>>> X_resampled, y_resampled = cc.fit_sample(X, y)
>>> print(sorted(Counter(y_resampled).items()))
[(0, 64), (1, 64), (2, 64)]
