I want to emphasise (increase the weight) of only a subset of data. Lets say I have old and fresh data, I would like to say that old data has to have more weight and therefore has more influence in the decision than the new data.
In scikit-learn I found only class-weight parameter, but it does not change the weight of the samples, only of all samples within the class.
Is there a way to incorporate this emphasis into the gradient boosted trees in spark or xgboost in python?

Are you sure it does that? The documentation suggests otherwise; seesample_weight_last_ten.

If you have a date variable (or something similar), you can create a weight using this.
If you're using XGBoost, there is an option to specify a weight for each instance when creating the DMatrix - feed your observation weighting in here.

There might be a fancier way to create dynamic weights but I would probably start with oversampling the subset and see how that goes. So if you've got classes A, B, and C and want to emphasize C, make a duplicate copy of C and insert that into your training data. In other words, assume you have six records to train on:
- A1
- A2
- B1
- B2
- C1
- C2
add:
- C1
- C2

You should be very wary of this method as it may introduce biases and skewness into your data - e.g. the distribution of certain variables may change.
