A novel ensemble-based approach called Ensemble Synthesizer (ENSY) is proposed to enhance the accuracy of mode choice dataset classification. This method leverages probability distribution for data augmentation, tailored specifically for minority class enhancement in transportation planning. ENSY demonstrates significant improvements, quadrupling the F1 score of minority classes and improving overall accuracy by nearly 3%. The approach outperforms other augmentation techniques, showcasing its robustness and effectiveness.
Low GrooveSquid.com (original content) Low Difficulty Summary
ENSY is a new way to improve how we predict what mode people will choose for transportation. Right now, these predictions aren’t very good because the models struggle with small groups of data that don’t match typical patterns. ENSY helps by making fake copies of the data that are more like real data. This makes the model better at predicting what those minority groups will do. The results show that ENSY is really good, making it a useful tool for planners who want to make better decisions about transportation.
