Abstract: Imbalanced data classification has been drawn significant attention from research community in last decade.Because of the assumption of relatively balanced class distribution and equal misclassification costs,most standard classifiers do not perform well with imbalanced data classification.In view of various phases of data classification,different imbalanced data classification methods have been proposed.The relevant research achievements over the years were analyzed,and various approaches with imbalanced data were introduced from the view of feature selection,adjustment of the data distribution,classification algorithm and classifier evaluation.The future trends and research issues that still need to be faced in imbalanced data classification were discussed in the end.

Key words: Adjustment of data distribution, Classification algorithm for imbalanced data, Feature selection for imbalanced data, Imbalanced classification assessment, Imbalanced data classification
