Decomposing one-class support vector machine into an ensemble of one-data support vector machines

arXiv:2606. 16002v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: One-class classification (OCC) is a classification problem in which the training data contains only one class.

Alliance Beats Isolation: Unifying Heterogeneous Allied Datasets Improves Classifier Performance

The paper introduces a method for combining heterogeneous, allied datasets—datasets that share the same class labels but have disjoint objects and largely distinct feature spaces—into a single unified feature space. By applying matrix completion to this merged space, the authors create a unified dataset that enables knowledge transfer between the original datasets. Experiments across multiple dataset pairs and classifiers show that models trained on the unified representation consistently outperform those trained separately on each dataset.

Collaborative Optimization of Multiclass Imbalanced Learning: Density-Aware and Region-Guided Boosting

The paper introduces a collaborative optimization Boosting model for multiclass imbalanced learning that integrates density and confidence factors to create a noise‑resistant weight update mechanism and a dynamic sampling strategy. The modules are tightly coupled to coordinate weight updates, sample region partitioning, and region‑guided sampling. Experiments on 40 public imbalanced datasets show the model significantly outperforms seven state‑of‑the‑art baselines.

Enhancing Multiclass Malware Classification in Resource-Constrained Environments

The paper presents a lightweight machine‑learning approach for multi‑class malware detection on resource‑constrained devices. Using a LightGBM classifier with SMOTE oversampling, SOM‑US undersampling, and Genetic‑Algorithm feature selection, the authors achieve 89.1 % accuracy on four malware families and 76 % on 16 individual malware types. A second Random‑Forest model further improves family classification to 91.2 % and individual classification to 78.7 %.

Vertical Fusion: Condensing Internal Representations for Robust ViT Classification

arXiv:2607. 10391v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Despite exposing rich intermediate representations, Vision Transformers (ViTs) are almost exclusively utilized as black-box feature extractors, where only the last layer is considered for downstream tasks.
