\title{Over- or undersample binary classification task to handle class imbalancy.}
\usage{
oversample(task, rate, cl = NULL)
undersample(task, rate, cl = NULL)
}
\arguments{
\item{task}{(\link{Task})\cr
The task.}
\item{rate}{(\code{numeric(1)})\cr
Factor to upsample or downsample a class.
For undersampling: Must be between 0 and 1,
where 1 means no downsampling, 0.5 implies reduction to 50 percent
and 0 would imply reduction to 0 observations.
For oversampling: Must be between 1 and \code{Inf},
where 1 means no oversampling and 2 would mean doubling the class size.}
\item{cl}{(\code{character(1)})\cr
Which class should be over- or undersampled. If \code{NULL}, \code{oversample}
will select the smaller and \code{undersample} the larger class.}
}
\value{
\link{Task}.
}
\description{
Oversampling: For a given class (usually the smaller one) all existing observations are
taken and copied and extra observations are added by randomly sampling with replacement from this class.
Undersampling: For a given class (usually the larger one) the number of observations is
reduced (downsampled) by randomly sampling without replacement from this class.
