In [[machine learning]], '''local case-control sampling''' is an [[algorithm]] used to reduce the complexity of training a [[logistic regression]] classifier. The algorithm reduces the training complexity by selecting a small subsample of the original dataset for training. It assumes the availability of a (unreliable) pilot estimation of the parameters. It then performs a single pass over the entire dataset using the pilot estimation to identify the most "surprising" samples. In practice, the pilot may come from prior knowledge or training using a subsample of the dataset. The algorithm is most effective when the underlying dataset is imbalanced. It exploits the structures of conditional imbalanced datasets more efficiently than alternative methods, such as [[Logistic_regression#Case-control_sampling|case control sampling]] and weighted case control sampling.
