This paper explores the application of unsupervised deep clustering techniques to imbalanced tabular data, a domain where class imbalance typically hinders supervised classification. The researchers introduce two novel ensemble methods for deep clustering: one that aggregates assignments across different embedding dimensions and another that uses majority voting among top-performing algorithms. Experiments on 16 imbalanced tabular datasets demonstrated that these ensemble approaches generally outperform individual deep clustering methods in accuracy, normalized mutual information, and adjusted Rand index scores, offering a robust alternative to supervised classification when class labels are unavailable.
