It's not clear to me that OneHotEncoder solved the problem. Maybe you can
explain further. The example
here<http://scikit-learn.org/0.13/modules/preprocessing.html>only
shows the algorithm transforming categorical integer values. Can the
algorithm take in a data set of text like categorical values like "male",
"female" and transform it.? The example gave me the impression that I had
to transform the text to integers, then use OneHotEncoder.
