The Synthetic Minority Over-sampling Technique (SMOTE) node provides an over-sampling algorithm to deal with imbalanced data sets. It provides an advanced method for balancing data. The SMOTE node in watsonx.ai is implemented in Python and requires the imbalanced-learn© Python library.

For details about the imbalanced-learn library, see imbalanced-learn documentation¹.

The Modeling tab on the nodes palette contains the SMOTE node and other Python nodes.
