Solving Data Overlapping Problem Using A Class‐Separable Extreme Learning Machine Auto‐Encoder

Advanced Intelligent Systems, Volume 7, Issue 3, March 2025.
The overlapping and imbalanced data in classification present key challenges. Class‐separable extreme learning machine auto‐encoding (CS‐ELM‐AE) is proposed, which is an enhancement of ELM‐AE that better handles overlapping data by clustering points from the same class together. Applying oversampling addresses imbalanced data.
