So you can use the proportion as a parameter to tune the performance depending on the goal of the task, but I don't think there's a way to improve performance for both classes (unless you find a way to make the model better at classifiying the difficult cases, of course). | |
Mar 28, 2021 at 5:33 | comment | added | LGDGODV | You are right, I tried classifying texts that are semantically distant apart, even the ratio is 1:10, the model still performs very well. But my case is to classify two types of posts that are semantically close to each other, one-class classification performs poorly in this case. Do you think that change a loss function might improve much for my binary classifier? | |
