[scikit-learn] Jeff Levesque: custom json encoder

[Jeffrey Levesque]

I'd like to be able to reinflate the model from json, or deserialize it, so that it can be used for prediction estimation.  For now I'm dealing exclusively with sklearn. I've been successful with pickle serializing + deserializing models, so they can be used for s SVC related predictions. These I think would be the easiest of a custom json encoder would to be created? Has anyone created a custom json encoder + decoder for SVC like SVM or SVR. And to continue, is it possible to create a custom encoder for ensemble methods like bagging, since it's a little more randomized internally?

Thank you,
