Hi, erveryone, I show much thanks to Andy and Matthew on former questions. I now sample only a small segment of a image can segment the image into several classes by RandomForest successfully. Now I have some confusion on it: 1. What is the internal component classifier in RandomForest? Are they the CART implemented in the rpart package? 2. I use training samples to predict new samples. But

Dear All, For a data mining project, I am relying heavily on the RandomForest and Party packages. Due to the large size of the data set, I have often memory problems (in particular with the Party package; RandomForest seems to use less memory). I really have two questions at this point 1) Please see how I am using the Party and RandomForest packages. Any comment is welcome and useful.

Hello, I am struggling to produce an MDS plot using the randomForest package with a moderately large data set. My data set has one categorical response variables, 7 predictor variables and just under 19000 observations. That means my proximity matrix is approximately 133000 by 133000 which is quite large. To train a random forest on this large a dataset I have to use my institutions high

You need to give us more details, like how you call randomForest, versions of the package and R itself, etc. Also, see if this helps you: http://finzi.psych.upenn.edu/R/Rhelp02a/archive/32918.html Andy From: Eleni Rapsomaniki > > Dear all, > > I am trying to train a randomForest using all my control data > (12,000 cases, ~ 20 explanatory variables, 2 classes). > Because

Dear R-users, While making a prediction using the randomForest function (package randomForest) I'm getting the following error message: "Error in predict.randomForest(model, newdata = CV) : No forest component in the object" Here's my complete code. For reproducing this task, please find my 2 data sets attached ( http://www.nabble.com/file/p17855119/data.rar data.rar ).

Buenos días: Otra opción es escribir directamente el nombre de la función en la consola de R: > randomForest function (x, ...) UseMethod("randomForest") En este caso, la función randomForest() llama a UseMethod() para seleccionar el método adecuado. Podemos ver los métodos para randomForest con la función methods(): > methods(randomForest) [1] randomForest.default*

Dear all, I am trying to train a randomForest using all my control data (12,000 cases, ~ 20 explanatory variables, 2 classes). Because of memory constraints, I have split my data into 7 subsets and trained a randomForest for each, hoping that using combine() afterwards would solve the memory issue. Unfortunately, combine() still runs out of memory. Is there anything else I can do? (I am not using

Hello I'd like to try out some functions in the package randomForest. Therefore, I did install this package. However, it is not possible to load the library, although I have R-Version 2.1.1 (i.e. later than 2.0.0). The commands I used and the Answers/Error from R is as follows: > install.packages("C://Programme//R//rw2011//library//randomForest_4.5-16.zip",

Hello, I've tried to install randomForest on a Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy Heron system. I've repeatedly rec'd the error: > install.packages("randomForest", dependencies = TRUE) ERROR: compiliation failed for package 'randomForest' ** Removing '/home/admuser/R/i486-pc-linux-gnu-library/2.6/randomForest' The downloaded packages are in

Just out of curiosity, I took the default "iris" example in the RF helpfile... but seeing the admonition against using the formula interface for large data sets, I wanted to play around a bit to see how the various options affected the output. Found something interesting I couldn't find documentation for... Just like the example... > set.seed(12) # to be sure I have

What is the function call interface for predict in the package party for cforest? I am looking at the documentation (the vignette) and ?cforest and from the examples I see that one can call the function predict on a cforest classifier. The method predict seems to be a method of the class RandomForest objects of which are returned by cforest. --------------------------- > cf.model =

Hi, I have been using some code for multivariate random forests. The output from this code is a list object with all the same values as from randomForest, but the model object is, of course, not of the class randomForest. So, I was hoping to modify the code for predict.randomForest to work for predicting the multivariate model to new data. This is my first attempt at modifying code from a

Dear all, Does anybody can explain this: different results got when all the same parameters are used in the errorest() in library ipred, as the following? errorest(Species ~ ., data=iris, model=randomForest, estimator = "cv", est.para=control.errorest(k=3), mtry=2)$err [1] 0.03333333 > errorest(Species ~ ., data=iris, model=randomForest, estimator = "cv",

Hello, I am attempting to train a random forest model using the randomForest package on 500,000 rows and 8 columns (7 predictors, 1 response). The data set is the first block of data from the UCI Machine Learning Repo dataset "Record Linkage Comparison Patterns" with the slight modification that I dropped two columns with lots of NA's and I used knn imputation to fill in other gaps.

I am new to R and I'd like to use the randomForest package for my thesis (identifying important variables for more detailed analysis with other software). I have found extremely well written and helpful information on the usage of R. Unfortunately it seems to be very difficult to find similarly detailed tutorials for randomForest, and I just can't get it work with the information on

Dear all, Can anybody give me some hint on the following error msg I got with using randomForest? I have two-class classification problem. The data file "sample" is: ---------------------------------------------------------- udomain.edu udomain.hcs hpclass 1 1.0000 1 not 2 NA 2 not 3 NA 0.8 not 4 NA 0.2 hp 5 NA 0.9 hp ------------------------------------------------------------ The

Hello, I have openSUSE 11.1 Trying to install randomForest as SU after invoking R install.packages("randomForest") and I get this * Installing *source* package ‘randomForest’ ... ** libs gcc -std=gnu99 -I/usr/lib/R/include -I/usr/local/include -fpic -O2 -c classTree.c -o classTree.o gcc -std=gnu99 -I/usr/lib/R/include -I/usr/local/include -fpic -O2 -c regTree.c -o

I am using R-2.6.0 on FreeBSD 8.0-CURRENT (i386). In the last days I had problems when building packages SparseM, lme4 and randomForest. The below message shows for randomForest, that 'libgfortran' was not found. The same error appeared with SparseM and lme4. --------------------------------- R CMD INSTALL randomForest_4.5-19.tar.gz * Installing to library

Dear All, I recently got a laptop upgrade, and had to re-install the tools I used for building R packages on Windows (XP SP2). I'm running into a strange problem that I can't resolve. Can anyone shed on light? This is with R-2.7.2 patched 2008-09-20 r46576, Rtools.zip downloaded a couple of weeks ago, and MikTeX 2.7. The output below was from a cygwin shell (PATH modified

I getting "Error in matrix(0, n, n) : too many elements specified" while building randomForest model, which looks like memory allocation error. Software versions are: randomForest 4.5-25, R version 2.7.1 Dataset is big (~90K rows, ~200 columns), but this is on a big machine ( ~120G RAM) and I call randomForest like this: randomForest(x,y) i.e. in supervised mode and not requesting
