#' Reweighing
#' @description  Reweighing is a preprocessing technique that weights the examples in each (group, label) combination differently to ensure fairness before classification
#' @param unprivileged_groups a list with two values: the column of the protected class and the value indicating representation for unprivileged group
#' @param privileged_groups  a list with two values: the column of the protected class and the value indicating representation for privileged group
#' @usage reweighing(unprivileged_groups, privileged_groups)
#' @examples
#' \dontrun{

#' ad <- adult_dataset()
