[R] Outputting a random survival forest to rf2rfz in windows
Hi, I am writing this message for the benefit of the community.I have been working with randomForestSRC on a windows machine.I have been trying for days to output the forest to an rfz file so that I can print a graphical representation of the tree using Ishwaran and Kogalur's java GUI for visualizing forests at no avail.I finally contacted Dr. Kogalur who has been extremely helpful.The bottom line is we couldn't get rf2rfz to save the file on windows (tested on several computers).getwd and sink methods showed that there was no problem saving files but rf2rfz wouldn't output a file all the same.Eventually, I just installed Ubuntu with a linux distribution of R and rf2rfz worked perfectly.
