+Utilities for Developers
+========================
+
+This section describes some of the functions provided by `imblearn` to facilitate writing appropriate code when using (or tinkering with) `imblearn`.

+Utilities for Developers
+========================
+
+Imbalanced-learn contains a number of utilities to help with development.  These are
+located in :mod:`imblearn.utils`, and include tools in a number of categories.
+All the following functions and classes are in the module :mod:`imblearn.utils`.
+
+.. warning ::
+
+   These utilities are meant to be used internally within the imbalanced-learn
+   package.  They are not guaranteed to be stable between versions of
+   scikit-learn.  Backports, in particular, will be removed as the scikit-learn
+   dependencies evolve.
+
+
+.. currentmodule:: imblearn.utils
+
+
+Validation Tools
+================
+
+These are tools used to check and validate input.  When you write a function
+which accepts arrays, matrices, or sparse matrices as arguments, the following
+should be used when applicable.
+
+- :func:`check_neighbors_object`: Check the objects is consistent to be a NN.
+- :func:`check_target_type`: Check the target types to be conform to the current samplers.
+- :func:`check_ratio`: Checks ratio for consistent type and return a dictionary
+    containing each targeted class with its corresponding number of pixel.
+
+Helper Functions
+================
+These are tools to facilitate writing code for imbalance learn.
+
+- :func:`hash_X_y`: Compute hash of the input arrays.
+- :func:`deprecate_parameter`: Helper to deprecate a parameter by another one.
