In general, most of the data have imbalanced issues, which may cause some problems in the researches. In this study, the methods of over-sampling and under-sampling are used for handling the issues of data imbalanced. The case based reasoning (CBR) is used for developing classification models to predict recurrent statuses of patients with liver cancer. Classification results of these two methods are compared with those of an original imbalanced dataset by the standard indicators, such as sensitivity, specificity, balanced accuracy (BAC), positive predictive value (PPV), negative predictive value (NPV), and accuracy. According to the preliminary results of classification methods, on average, the BAC of balanced methods of the under-sampling (66.07%) and the over-sampling (54.24%) exert a significant improvement compared with the imbalanced grouping dataset (48.33%). Most importantly, the under-sampling method could acquire the highest mean accuracy of the three datasets (under-sampling: 66.76%, over-sampling: 53.47%, imbalanced: 48.58%). In under-sampling method, mean PPV, NPV, and accuracy are higher than 65% (PPV: 65.44%, NPV: 69.44%, accuracy: 66.76%). The balanced datasets can provide benefits for classification models and efficiently reduce biased interpretations. ? 2014 IEEE.case-base reasoning; imbalanced dataset; liver cancer; over-sampling; under-sampling[SDGs]SDG3Biomedical engineering; Classification (of information); Clinical research; Diseases; Hospital data processing; Case-base reasonings; Imbalanced dataset; Liver cancers; Over sampling; Under-sampling; Case based reasoningconference paper10.1109/BMEiCON.2014.70173712-s2.0-84923067311https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-84923067311&doi=10.1109%2fBMEiCON.2014.7017371&partnerID=40&md5=0a8982e2b4eb7a9f1f0617847d260bfa
