New GAN model tackles class imbalance in tabular data

Researchers have developed ctdGAN, a novel conditional Generative Adversarial Network designed to address class imbalance in tabular datasets. This new model partitions input samples into clusters and employs a probabilistic sampling strategy to generate synthetic data within these identified subspaces. The method also incorporates a cluster-wise scaling technique to capture multiple feature modes and a loss function that penalizes mis-predictions at both the cluster and class levels. Evaluations on 14 imbalanced datasets showed ctdGAN's effectiveness in producing high-fidelity samples and improving classification accuracy. AI

IMPACT This research offers a new method for improving the performance of machine learning models on imbalanced tabular datasets.

    A Conditional GAN for Tabular Data Generation with Probabilistic Sampling of Latent Subspaces

    arXiv:2508.00472v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: The tabular form constitutes the standard way of representing data in relational database systems and spreadsheets. But, similarly to other forms, tabular data suffers from class imbalance, a problem that causes serious performa…
