Re: [Scikit-learn-general] Imbalance in scikit-learn

Using the sample_weight parameter in the RandomForestClassifier along with the 
balance_weights method from the preprocessing module to generate the sample 
weights might work as well.

 One simple solution that often works wonders is to set the class_weight 
 parameter of a classifier (if available) to 'auto' [1].
 
 If you have enough data, it often also makes sense to balance the data

 Does anyone know a solution for imbalance in scikit-learn or in python
