	abstract = {In classification tasks with imbalanced datasets the distribution of examples between the classes is uneven. However, it is not the imbalance itself which hinders the performance, but there are other related intrinsic data characteristics which have a significance in the final accuracy. Among all, the overlapping between the classes is possibly the most significant one for a correct discrimination between the classes.},
