RoBell-RVFL: A Robust Generalized Bell Random Vector Functional Link Network

Read the original on arXiv Machine Learning →

RoBell-RVFL is a lightweight, quality‑aware generalized bell random vector functional link network designed to address class imbalance and noisy data in real‑world datasets. It uses a dual‑strategy sample‑level weighting: unit weights preserve minority class information, while a probability‑weighted generalized bell membership function suppresses noisy majority samples in a kernel‑induced feature space. Experiments on UCI and KEEL benchmarks, including tests with up to 40% label noise, show that RoBell‑RVFL consistently outperforms recent RVFL variants, demonstrating the importance of adaptive, quality‑aware sample weighting for robust learning.

Data Balancing Strategies: A Systematic Survey of Resampling and Augmentation Methods

arXiv:2505. 13518v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Imbalanced datasets, where one class significantly outnumbers others, remain a persistent challenge in machine learning, often biasing predictions toward the majority class and degrading classifier performance.
