© 2018 ACM. This study presents MAHAKIL, a novel and efficient synthetic over-sampling approach for software defect datasets that is based on the chromosomal theory of inheritance. Exploiting this theory, MAHAKIL interprets two distinct sub-classes as parents and generates a new instance that inheri...
