Imbalanced-learn 0.12.0

Changelog

Bug fixes

• Fix a bug in SMOTENC where the entries of the one-hot encoding should be divided by sqrt(2) and not 2, taking into account that they are plugged into an Euclidean distance computation. #1014 by Guillaume Lemaitre.
• Raise an informative error message when all support vectors are tagged as noise in SVMSMOTE. #1016 by Guillaume Lemaitre.
• Fix a bug in SMOTENC where the median of standard deviation of the continuous features was only computed on the minority class. Now, we are computing this statistic for each class that is up-sampled. #1015 by Guillaume Lemaitre.
• Fix a bug in SMOTENC such that the case where the median of standard deviation of the continuous features is null is handled in the multiclass case as well. #1015 by Guillaume Lemaitre.
• Fix a bug in BorderlineSMOTE version 2 where samples should be generated from the whole dataset and not only from the minority class. #1023 by Guillaume Lemaitre.
• Fix a bug in NeighbourhoodCleaningRule where the kind_sel="all" was not working as explained in the literature. #1012 by Guillaume Lemaitre.
• Fix a bug in NeighbourhoodCleaningRule where the threshold_cleaning ratio was multiplied on the total number of samples instead of the number of samples in the minority class. #1012 by Guillaume Lemaitre.
• Fix a bug in RandomUnderSampler and RandomOverSampler where a column containing only NaT was not handled correctly. #1059 by Guillaume Lemaitre.

• BalancedRandomForestClassifier now support missing values and monotonic constraints if scikit-learn >= 1.4 is installed.
• Pipeline support metadata routing if scikit-learn >= 1.4 is installed.
• Compatibility with scikit-learn 1.4. #1058 by Guillaume Lemaitre.

Deprecations

• Deprecate kind_sel in #1012 by Guillaume Lemaitre.

Enhancements

imbalanced-learn 0.11.0

Changelog

Bug fixes

• Fix a bug in classification_report_imbalanced where the parameter target_names was not taken into account when output_dict=True. #989 by AYY7.

• SMOTENC now handles mix types of data type such as bool and pd.CategoricalDtype by delegating the conversion to scikit-learn encoder. #1002 by Guillaume Lemaitre.

• Handle sparse matrices in SMOTEN and raise a warning since it requires a conversion to dense matrices. #1003 by Guillaume Lemaitre.

• Remove spurious warning raised when minority class get over-sampled more than the number of sample in the majority class. #1007 by Guillaume Lemaitre.

Compatibility

• Maintenance release for being compatible with scikit-learn >= 1.3.0. #999 by Guillaume Lemaitre.

Deprecation

• The fitted attribute ohe_ in SMOTENC is deprecated and will be removed in version 0.13. Use categorical_encoder_ instead. #1000 by Guillaume Lemaitre.

• The default of the parameters sampling_strategy and replacement will change in BalancedRandomForestClassifier to follow the implementation of the original paper. This changes will take effect in version 0.13. #1006 by Guillaume Lemaitre.

Enhancements

• SMOTENC now accepts a parameter categorical_encoder allowing to specify a OneHotEncoder with custom parameters. #1000 by Guillaume Lemaitre.

• RandomUnderSampler and RandomOverSampler (when shrinkage is not None) now accept any data types and will not attempt any data conversion. #1004 by Guillaume Lemaitre.

• SMOTENC now support passing array-like of str when passing the categorical_features parameter. #1008 by :userGuillaume Lemaitre <glemaitre>.

• SMOTENC now support automatic categorical inference when categorical_features is set to "auto". #1009 by :userGuillaume Lemaitre <glemaitre>.
