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.

Density‑Ratio Rescoring (DRR) enhances a classifier trained with the original class prior by adding a survey‑raking dual score that reweights the majority class to match minority feature moments within a tolerance. The method standardizes both the dual and base scores, combines them with equal weight, and uses the fitted dual directly for prediction without resampling or refitting the base model. Experiments on 24 tabular benchmarks and a gene‑expression cohort show that DRR improves average precision over the standardized base on every dataset, with a mean gain of 0.034, and outperforms a shared‑dual raking‑and‑relabeling resampler on most datasets.

SAGE (Subpopulation-Aware Generative Enhancement) is a two-stage generative augmentation framework designed to mitigate spurious correlations in machine learning when group labels are unavailable. It uses cluster-derived sub-labels and class labels to fine‑tune a conditional generative model and text encoder, producing synthetic data that fills underrepresented regions and creates a balanced validation set for last‑layer reweighting. Experiments show SAGE improves worst‑group accuracy to 89.5%, 85.7%, and 79.1% on Waterbirds, CelebA, and MetaShift, outperforming existing group‑label‑free baselines by up to 7.7 percentage points.
