Hi all, I'm having great trouble working with the Cforest (from the party package) and Random forest functions. Large data set seem to create very large model objects which means I cannot work with the number of observations I need to, despite running on a large 8GB 64-bit box. I would like the object to only hold the trees themselves as I intend to export them out of R. Is there anyway,

Hi, This is my code (my data is attached): library(languageR) library(rms) library(party) OLDDATA <- read.csv("/Users/Abigail/Documents/OldData250412.csv") OLDDATA$YD <- factor(OLDDATA$YD, label=c("Yes", "No"))? OLDDATA$ND <- factor(OLDDATA$ND, label=c("Yes", "No"))? attach(OLDDATA) defaults <- cbind(YD, ND) set.seed(47) data.controls

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 =

Like earth can be trained simultaneously for degree and nprune, is there a way to train ctree simultaneously for mincriterion and maxdepth? Also, I notice there are separate methods ctree and ctree2, and if both options are attempted to tune with one method, the summary averages the option it doesn't support. The full log is attached, and notice these lines below for

Greetings, I am using cforest to predict age of fishes using several variables; as it is rather difficult to age fishes I would like to show that a small subset of fish (training dataset) can be aged, then using RF analysis, age can accurately be predicted to the remaining individuals not in the subsample. In cforest_unbiased the samples are drawn without replacement and so it creates a default

mboost contains a blackboost method to build tree-based boosting models. I tried to write my own "cost-sensitive" ada family. But obviously my understanding to implement ngradient, loss, and offset functions is not right. I would greatly appreciate if anyone can help me out, or show me how to write a cost-sensitive family, thanks! Follows are some families I wrote ngradient <-

Hi, There is an excellent article at http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2105/9/307 by Stroble, et al. describing variable importance in random forests. Does anyone have any suggestions (besides imputation or removal of cases) for how to deal with data that *have* missing data for predictor variables? Below is an excerpt of some code referenced in the article. I have commented out one line and

Hello, When evaluating different learning methods for a categorization problem with the (really useful!) caret package, I'm getting confusing results from the Kappa computation. The data is about 20,000 rows and a few dozen columns, and the categories are quite asymmetrical, 4.1% in one category and 95.9% in the other. When I train a ctree model as: model <- train(dat.dts,

Hi, I'm very new to R. I am most interested in the variable importance measures that result from randomForest, but many of my predictors are highly correlated. My first question is: 1. do highly correlated variables render variable importance measures in randomForest invalid? and 2. I know that cforest is robust to highly correlated variables, however, I do not have enough space on my

R programming question, not machine learning, although that's the content. Apologies to all for whom the following code is eye-burning. I am using foreach() to run a simulation on a randomForest model (actually conditional randomForest ... "party" package). The simulation is in two dimensions. examining how "mtry" and "ntrees" are related in terms of predictive

Dear mailing list, I am using the cforest() method from the party package to train a randomForest with ten input parameters which sometimes contain "NA"s. The predicted variable is a binary decision. Building the tree works fine without warnings or error messages, but when using the predict() statement for validation, I run in an error: forest <- cforest(V31 ~ V1+V2+V3,

Hi, I am facing a hierarchically structured dataset, and I am not sure of the right way to analyses it with cforest, if their is one. - - BACKGROUND & PROBLEM We are analyzing the behavior of some social birds facing different temperature conditions. The behaviors of the birds were recorder during many sessions of 2 hours. Conditional RF (cforest) are quite useful for this analysis

All -- I have been trying to work with the 'Party' package using R v2.15.1 and have cobbled together a (somewhat) functioning code from examples on the web. I need to run a series of unbiased, conditional, cForest tests on several subsets of data which I have made into a loop. The results ideally will be saved to an output file in matrix form. The two questions regarding the script in

Dear List, I'm trying to find a way to extract the individual conditional inference trees from cforest ( a modelling function in the party package) in a manner analogous to getTree in randomForest and I'm struggling. I can see that the information is held within the ensemble list, but haven't been able to work out how this sequence of nested lists is structured or if any of the items

Hi, I am new to R and am using the ctree() function to do customer segmentation. I am using the following code to generate the tree: treedata$Response<-factor(treedata$Conversion) fit<-ctree(Response ~ .,controls=ctree_control(mincriterion=0.99,maxdepth=4),data=treedata) plot(fit) print(fit) The variable "Response" above equals 1 if the customer responded to an offering and

Greetings! I'm trying to use function varimpAUC in the party package (party_1.0-3 released September 26th of this year). Unfortunately, I get the following error message: > data.cforest.varimp <- varimpAUC(data.cforest, conditional = TRUE) Error: could not find function "varimpAUC" Was this function NOT included in the Windows binary I downloaded and installed? Could someone

Hello. I have used the "party" package to generate a regression tree as follows: >origdata<-read.csv("origdata.csv") >ctrl<-ctree_control(mincriterion=0.99,maxdepth=10,minbucket=10) >test.ct<-ctree(Y~X1+X2+X3,data=origdata,control=ctrl) The above works fine. Orig data was my training data. I now have a test data file (testdata), and
