CopulaSMOTE: A Copula-Based Oversampling Approach for Imbalanced Classification in Diabetes Prediction

arXiv:2506.17326v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Class imbalance remains a practical obstacle in the development of clinical prediction models for conditions such as diabetes mellitus, where the number of confirmed cases is often much smaller than the number of controls. The Synthetic Minority Over-sampling Technique (SMOTE) and its variants are widely used to address this imbalance, but they generate synthetic observations through local interpolation in feature space and do not explicitly model the joint dependence structure of the minority class. To address this challenge, our study intro
The continuous growth of AI in healthcare, particularly for predictive diagnostics, necessitates improved methods for handling imbalanced datasets inherent in medical conditions like diabetes.
This development addresses a critical technical challenge in AI-driven healthcare, potentially leading to more accurate and reliable clinical prediction models and reducing diagnostic errors.
The ability to more effectively model joint dependence structures in imbalanced medical datasets improves the robustness and reliability of AI models used for disease prediction.
