Comparative F1-Score Analysis of Tabular Foundation Models Fine-Tuned on SCM versus Diffusion-Augmented Data for Imbalanced
Abstract
Abstract: This paper proposes a novel data augmentation scheme called the conditional generative adversarial network minority-class-augmented oversampling scheme (CTGAN-MOS) for solving class imbalance problems. Our methodology encompassed six key steps: data engineering using sophisticated pre-processing techniques, identifying the type of vulnerabilities present in the data, curating good quality synthetic data using the CTGAN model, the intelligent fusion of real and synthetic data, noise removal from the augmented data using coin-throwing algorithm, and building classifiers with the high-quality aug
Research Question
How does the F1-score of tabular foundation models fine-tuned on SCM-generated synthetic data compare to those using diffusion-based augmentation when evaluated on imbalanced datasets like Adult and Credit?
Verification Level
| Paper level | L2, Source-grounded claims | |
| Source-grounded claims | 10 | |
| Claim record source | not publicly specified |
Descriptive public verification status only; aggregate claim counts are public, but individual claim records are not exposed here.
Truth-Engine Gate Verdict
| Status | Unverified | |
| Gate | Gate 2 — Verification (formal proof or sandbox reproduction) | |
| Reason | Published before the Gate 2 verification pipeline was activated (2026-06-10). No formal proof or sandbox reproduction has been attempted for this record. |
This record has not completed Gate 2 of the verification pipeline (a type-checked Lean4 proof for mathematical claims, or a sealed-sandbox reproduction for empirical claims). It is a literature synthesis only. VERIFIED requires an attached reproducible artifact (Lean4 proof source, or repro script and results) before this status can be set; it is not derived from review score or claim count.
Quality Tier
| Tier | Watchlist | |
| Basis | Review score or public verified-claim signal is below DOI-grade threshold. |
Descriptive public triage only; this tier does not alter current publication or DOI behavior.
Quality Dimensions
| Evidence strength | LOW | |
| Citation grounding | MEDIUM | |
| Uncertainty disclosure | MEDIUM | |
| Reproducibility status | MEDIUM |
Automated triage signals derived from public fields; not human peer review or independent validation.
