i would like to plot a subset of variables with the highest variable importance measures (say the top 20) instead of plotting all of the variables included in the analysis (~75). i tried arguments that work to restrict the number of variables displayed in the plot in randomForest as follows: plot(rsfCauc.out,sort=TRUE,n.var=min(30,nrow(rsfCauc.out$importance)),type=TRUE,class=NULL,scale=TRUE,main=deparse(substitute(rsfCauc.out))) however, that code only resulted in the plot with all 75 variables. help would be much appreciated. many thanks! -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/randomSurvivalForest-plotting-tp21672013p21672013.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
