What is Upsampling and downsampling in python?

You can balance your data by resampling them. The followings are two different techniques for resampling: Upsampling (increase your minority class) Downsample (decrease your majority class)

What is downsampling and Upsampling?

Downsampling is the reduction in spatial resolution while keeping the same two-dimensional (2D) representa- tion. It is typically used to reduce the storage and/or transmission requirements of images. Upsampling is the increasing of the spatial resolution while keeping the 2D representation of an image.

How do you use Upsampling in python?

You can upsample a dataset by simply copying records from minority classes. You can do so via the resample() method from the sklearn. utils module, as shown in the following script. You can see that in this case, the first argument we pass the resample() method is our minority class, i.e. our spam dataset.

What is Upsampling and downsampling in machine learning?

Downsampling (in this context) means training on a disproportionately low subset of the majority class examples. Upweighting means adding an example weight to the downsampled class equal to the factor by which you downsampled.
