arXiv:2607. 09816v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Class imbalance poses a fundamental challenge in risk-sensitive applications such as fraud detection and medical diagnosis, where minority-class samples are scarce yet critical for accurate classification.
The paper introduces a bias‑correction method for synthetic oversampling in imbalanced learning. It estimates the loss discrepancy caused by the data generator using a held‑out majority subset and transfers this correction to the minority class under a uniform bias‑transfer assumption. The authors provide finite‑sample bounds for bias transfer and excess balanced risk, identify when SMOTE introduces significant bias, and demonstrate the method’s applicability to multi‑task learning and propensity‑score estimation, with empirical results showing greatest benefit when synthetic distortion is large.
