Roulette Sampling for Cost-Sensitive Learning
In this paper, we propose a new and general preprocessor algorithm, called CSRoulette, which converts any cost-insensitive classification algorithms into cost-sensitive ones. CSRou...

A Comparison of Models for Cost-Sensitive Active Learning
Active Learning (AL) is a selective sampling strategy which has been shown to be particularly cost-efficient by drastically reducing the amount of training data to be manually ann...

Cost-Sensitive Learning vs. Sampling: Which is Best for Handling Unbalanced Classes with Unequal Error Costs?
- The classifier built from a data set with a highly skewed class distribution generally predicts the more frequently occurring classes much more often than the infrequently occurr...

Cost-Sensitive Learning in Answer Extraction
One problem of data-driven answer extraction in open-domain factoid question answering is that the class distribution of labeled training data is fairly imbalanced. This imbalance...

Cost-Sensitive Learning by Cost-Proportionate Example Weighting
We propose and evaluate a family of methods for converting classifier learning algorithms and classification theory into cost-sensitive algorithms and theory. The proposed conve...
