Overview

About

Maintained by Fatih SaglamFirst published 2022-12-208 releasesCRAN page ↗

Provides the SMOTE with Boosting (SMOTEWB) algorithm. See F. Sağlam, M. A. Cengiz (2022) doi:10.1016/j.eswa.2022.117023. It is a SMOTE-based resampling technique which creates synthetic data on the links between nearest neighbors. SMOTEWB uses boosting weights to determine where to generate new samples and automatically decides the number of neighbors for each sample. It is robust to noise and outperforms most of the alternatives according to Matthew Correlation Coefficient metric. Alternative resampling methods are also available in the package.

Install

R (CRAN)Ubuntu (r2u)Fedora (COPR)openSUSE (OBS)

install.packages("SMOTEWB", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")

Installs the current CRAN release. Prebuilt binaries on Windows and macOS.

Release

# enable cranapt (r2u) if it is not already set up, then install
grep -rqs r2u.stat.illinois.edu /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ \
  || curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/eddelbuettel/r2u/master/inst/scripts/add_cranapt_noble.sh | sudo bash
sudo apt install -y r-cran-smotewb

Fast Ubuntu binaries via r2u (no compilation). The cranapt setup runs once and is skipped when it is already enabled.

bspm (used by r2u) also needs make: sudo apt install make

# enable the iucar/cran COPR if it is not already present, then install
ls /etc/yum.repos.d/*iucar*cran*.repo >/dev/null 2>&1 \
  || sudo dnf copr enable -y iucar/cran
sudo dnf install -y R-CRAN-SMOTEWB

RPMs from the iucar/cran COPR, rebuilt from CRAN.

For install.packages() integration in R, also: sudo dnf install R-CoprManager

# add the autoCRAN OBS repo (Tumbleweed) if it is missing, then install
zypper -q lr | grep -qi autoCRAN \
  || sudo zypper addrepo https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/languages:/R:/autoCRAN/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/devel:languages:R:autoCRAN.repo
sudo zypper install -y R-SMOTEWB

RPMs auto-built from CRAN on openSUSE OBS (Tumbleweed).
