MACHINE LEARNING WITH IMBALANCED DATA: Proven Techniques to Build Accurate Models from Skewed Datasets
In the real world of data science, perfect datasets are a myth—most are skewed, with rare events like fraud, disease outbreaks, or customer churn hiding in a sea of normalcy. Machine Learning with Imbalanced Data: Proven Techniques to Build Accurate Models from Skewed Datasets equips you with battle-tested strategies to conquer this challenge and create models that truly perform. From foundational concepts like evaluating class distributions to advanced methods such as SMOTE variants, ensemble boosting, and cost-sensitive algorithms, this hands-on guide takes you step-by-step through Python-based projects using libraries like scikit-learn and imbalanced-learn.
Explore practical applications in fraud detection, medical diagnosis, and marketing analytics, with detailed case studies, code snippets, and exercises that build from beginner-friendly setups to production-ready pipelines. Learn to avoid common pitfalls like misleading accuracy metrics, data leakage, and overfitting, while mastering tools to deploy robust models via MLOps. Whether you're a data enthusiast starting out or a seasoned practitioner refining your skills, this book transforms imbalanced data from a hurdle into a superpower, ensuring your predictions catch the critical outliers that drive real impact.
