RESUMEN
This research investigates the application of Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) to enhance the cost-effectiveness of drug development, addressing the limitations of cost and time. Class imbalances within classification datasets, such as the discrepancy between active and inactive compounds, give rise to difficulties that can be resolved through strategies like oversampling, undersampling, and manipulation of the loss function. A comparison is conducted between three distinct datasets using three different GNN architectures. This benchmarking research can steer future investigations and enhance the efficacy of GNNs in drug discovery and design. Three hundred models for each combination of architecture and dataset were trained using hyperparameter tuning techniques and evaluated using a range of metrics. Notably, the oversampling technique outperforms eight experiments, showcasing its potential. While balancing techniques boost imbalanced dataset models, their efficacy depends on dataset specifics and problem type. Although oversampling aids molecular graph datasets, more research is needed to optimize its usage and explore other class imbalance solutions.

In this paper, we addressed the problem of dataset scarcity for the task of network intrusion detection. Our main contribution was to develop a framework that provides a complete process for generating network traffic datasets based on the aggregation of real network traces. In addition, we proposed a set of tools for attribute extraction and labeling of traffic sessions. A new dataset with botnet network traffic was generated by the framework to assess our proposed method with machine learning algorithms suitable for unbalanced data. The performance of the classifiers was evaluated in terms of macro-averages of F1-score (0.97) and the Matthews Correlation Coefficient (0.94), showing a good overall performance average.
