Cavity Filling: Pseudo-Feature Generation for Multi-Class Imbalanced Data Problems in Deep Learning

Tomohiko Konno, Michiaki Iwazume

Herein, we generate pseudo-features based on the multivariate probability distributions obtained from the feature maps in layers of trained deep neural networks. Further, we augment the minor-class data based on these generated pseudo-features to overcome the imbalanced data problems. The proposed method, i.e., cavity filling, improves the deep learning capabilities in several problems because all the real-world data are observed to be imbalanced.
