similar to: CForest Error Logical Subscript Too Long

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 =

I would like to build a forest of regression trees to see how well some covariates predict a response variable and to examine the importance of the covariates. I have a small number of covariates (8) and large number of records (27368). The response and all of the covariates are continuous variables. A cursory examination of the covariates does not suggest they are correlated in a simple fashion

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

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

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, Could anyone help me understand how the mincriterion threshold works in ctree and cforest of the party package? I've seen examples which state that to satisfy the p < 0.05 condition before splitting I should use mincriterion = 0.95 while the documentation suggests I should use mincriterion = qnorm(0.95) which would obviously feed the function a different value. Thanks in advance,

I was trying to produced bagged importance estimates of attributes in earth using the caret package with the following commands:   fit2 <- bagEarth(loyalty ~ ., data=model1, B = 10)   bagImpGCV <- varImp(fit2,value="gcv") My bootstrap estimates are produced however the second command "varImp" produces the following error:    Error in UseMethod("varImp") : no

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

Hi, I'm using package "caret" to rank predictors using random forest model and draw predictors importance plot. I used below commands: rf.fit<-randomForest(x,y,ntree=500,importance=TRUE) ## "x" is matrix whose columns are predictors, "y" is a binary resonse vector ## Then I got the ranked predictors by ranking

Rui: "f these two, diff is faster. But of all the solutions posted so far, Ben Bolker's is the fastest." But the explicit version of diff is still considerably faster: > D <- c(rep(1,10),rep(2,6),rep(3,2)) > microbenchmark(c(1L,diff(D)), times = 1000L) Unit: microseconds expr min lq mean median uq max neval c(1L, diff(D)) 3.075 3.198 3.34396

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, I'm trying to use the party package function varimp() to get conditional variable importance measures, as I'm aware that some of my variables are correlated. However I keep getting error messages (such as the example below). I get similar errors with three separate datasets that I'm using. At a guess it might be something to do with the very large number of variables (e.g.

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

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
