Abstract: In this paper, an I-SVDD algorithm for two-class imbalance problem is proposed, which based on Support Vector Date Description algorithm. In this algorithm, the C value of SVDD with negative sample is redefined for each sample with data distributing information. We verified the efficiency of algorithm using artificial data and UCI datasets for the data unbalanced classification problem. Compared with SVDD with negative samples, the AUC value of I-SVDD is increased by 12%. Compared with AdaBoost, the recall of positive class is increased by 35%,and the precision increased by 2%.
