# imblearn.under_sampling.RandomUnderSampler¶

class imblearn.under_sampling.RandomUnderSampler(sampling_strategy='auto', return_indices=False, random_state=None, replacement=False, ratio=None)[source]

Class to perform random under-sampling.

Under-sample the majority class(es) by randomly picking samples with or without replacement.

Read more in the User Guide.

Parameters
sampling_strategyfloat, str, dict, callable, (default=’auto’)

Sampling information to sample the data set.

• When float, it corresponds to the desired ratio of the number of samples in the minority class over the number of samples in the majority class after resampling. Therefore, the ratio is expressed as \alpha_{us} = N_{m} / N_{rM} where N_{m} is the number of samples in the minority class and N_{rM} is the number of samples in the majority class after resampling.

Warning

float is only available for binary classification. An error is raised for multi-class classification.

• When str, specify the class targeted by the resampling. The number of samples in the different classes will be equalized. Possible choices are:

'majority': resample only the majority class;

'not minority': resample all classes but the minority class;

'not majority': resample all classes but the majority class;

'all': resample all classes;

'auto': equivalent to 'not minority'.

• When dict, the keys correspond to the targeted classes. The values correspond to the desired number of samples for each targeted class.

• When callable, function taking y and returns a dict. The keys correspond to the targeted classes. The values correspond to the desired number of samples for each class.

return_indicesbool, optional (default=False)

Whether or not to return the indices of the samples randomly selected.

Deprecated since version 0.4: return_indices is deprecated. Use the attribute sample_indices_ instead.

random_stateint, RandomState instance or None, optional (default=None)

Control the randomization of the algorithm.

• If int, random_state is the seed used by the random number generator;

• If RandomState instance, random_state is the random number generator;

• If None, the random number generator is the RandomState instance used by np.random.

replacementboolean, optional (default=False)

Whether the sample is with or without replacement.

ratiostr, dict, or callable

Deprecated since version 0.4: Use the parameter sampling_strategy instead. It will be removed in 0.6.

Notes

Supports multi-class resampling by sampling each class independently. Supports heterogeneous data as object array containing string and numeric data.

Examples

>>> from collections import Counter
>>> from sklearn.datasets import make_classification
>>> from imblearn.under_sampling import RandomUnderSampler
>>> X, y = make_classification(n_classes=2, class_sep=2,
...  weights=[0.1, 0.9], n_informative=3, n_redundant=1, flip_y=0,
... n_features=20, n_clusters_per_class=1, n_samples=1000, random_state=10)
>>> print('Original dataset shape %s' % Counter(y))
Original dataset shape Counter({1: 900, 0: 100})
>>> rus = RandomUnderSampler(random_state=42)
>>> X_res, y_res = rus.fit_resample(X, y)
>>> print('Resampled dataset shape %s' % Counter(y_res))
Resampled dataset shape Counter({0: 100, 1: 100})

Attributes
sample_indices_ndarray, shape (n_new_samples)

Indices of the samples selected.

New in version 0.4: sample_indices_ used instead of return_indices=True.

__init__(self, sampling_strategy='auto', return_indices=False, random_state=None, replacement=False, ratio=None)[source]

Initialize self. See help(type(self)) for accurate signature.

fit(self, X, y)[source]

Check inputs and statistics of the sampler.

You should use fit_resample in all cases.

Parameters
X{array-like, sparse matrix}, shape (n_samples, n_features)

Data array.

yarray-like, shape (n_samples,)

Target array.

Returns
selfobject

Return the instance itself.

fit_resample(self, X, y)[source]

Resample the dataset.

Parameters
X{array-like, sparse matrix}, shape (n_samples, n_features)

Matrix containing the data which have to be sampled.

yarray-like, shape (n_samples,)

Corresponding label for each sample in X.

Returns
X_resampled{array-like, sparse matrix}, shape (n_samples_new, n_features)

The array containing the resampled data.

y_resampledarray-like, shape (n_samples_new,)

The corresponding label of X_resampled.

fit_sample(self, X, y)[source]

Resample the dataset.

Parameters
X{array-like, sparse matrix}, shape (n_samples, n_features)

Matrix containing the data which have to be sampled.

yarray-like, shape (n_samples,)

Corresponding label for each sample in X.

Returns
X_resampled{array-like, sparse matrix}, shape (n_samples_new, n_features)

The array containing the resampled data.

y_resampledarray-like, shape (n_samples_new,)

The corresponding label of X_resampled.

get_params(self, deep=True)[source]

Get parameters for this estimator.

Parameters
deepboolean, optional

If True, will return the parameters for this estimator and contained subobjects that are estimators.

Returns
paramsmapping of string to any

Parameter names mapped to their values.

set_params(self, **params)[source]

Set the parameters of this estimator.

The method works on simple estimators as well as on nested objects (such as pipelines). The latter have parameters of the form <component>__<parameter> so that it’s possible to update each component of a nested object.

Returns
self
