 #### SMOTE
 The synthetic minority oversampling technique (SMOTE) is used to generate synthetic data to increase the size of a minority class. To create the synthetic data you:
 1. Choose a point in the minority class
-2. 
+2. Find k nearest minority neighbors
+3. Select j of these neighbors
+4. Create new synthetic data point along line between first point and selected neighbors
+5. Repeat
