Regression - Unbalanced Categorical Features












0












$begingroup$


Morning all.
I have a data set that has some unbalanced categorical features. I would like to build a regression model to predict a label using machine learning (ML).
My concern is:
- How to handle data imbalance in categorical variables, if required, to avoid any bias in my ML regression model?
Regards.
