Question about the k-Prototype

[ANIS87]

Dear Nico
Thank you very much for this python code !
In fact, i have a question about the algorithm k-Prototype implemented in this work.
I wanted to know if it is possible to assign some weighted coefficients to each families of variables ( like various probabilities : 0.7 for numeric data and 0.3 for categories) in the order to give more importance to some classification than other.
Thank You for any response.

The gamma coefficient does exactly this. Check it out: https://github.com/nicodv/kmodes/blob/master/kmodes/kprototypes.py#L284
