Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have achieved impressive results on imbalanced image data, but they still have difficulty generalizing to minority classes and their decisions are difficult to interpret. These problems are related…
Class-imbalance is a common problem in machine learning practice. Typical Imbalanced Learning (IL) methods balance the data via intuitive class-wise resampling or reweighting. However, previous studies suggest that beyond class-imbalance,…
