With the rapid growth of memory and computing power, datasets are becoming increasingly complex and imbalanced. This is especially severe in the context of clinical data, where there may be one rare event for many cases in the majority…

Improving the classification of multi-class imbalanced data is more difficult than its two-class counterpart. In this paper, we use deep neural networks to train new representations of tabular multi-class data. Unlike the typically…
