On oversampling imbalanced data with deep conditional generative models

作者:

Highlights:

• Propose the conditional Variational Autoencoder for the imbalance problem.

• Deep conditional generative models can improve accuracy in imbalanced learning.

• Variational Autoencoders achieve better results than Generative Adversarial Networks.

• Random oversampling prior to training generative models often lead to better results.
