FT4cip: A new functional tree for classification in class imbalance problems

作者:

Highlights:

• We introduce the Functional Tree for class imbalance problems (FT4cip).

• We make a statistical comparison of FT4cip against rival methods in 110 databases.

• The comparison shows FT4cip has better classification performance than rivals.

• A meta-analysis lets us recommend what classifier to use given a specific problem.

• The meta-analysis shows FT4cip has great performance in class imbalance problems.
