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

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

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 all: I¡¯m trying to get unbiased feature importance of my data via package ¡°party¡±, which contains 1-5 integer value, and a few numeric values attributes. The class label is 1-5 integer value as well. In total I have 20 features with 1100 observations. I checked the type my data in R using class(my_data_cell), no factor has been observed. I received a commond error like others did

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

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

Dear R users: I have been trying to figure out how to include string variables in a for loop to run multiple random forests with little success. The current code returns the following error: Error in trafo(data = data, numeric_trafo = numeric_trafo, factor_trafo = factor_trafo, : data class character is not supported In addition: Warning message: In storage.mode(RET@predict_trafo) <-

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

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'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.

require(randomForest) rf.pred<-predict(fit, valid, type="prob") > rf.pred[1:20, ] 0 1 16 0.0000 1.0000 23 0.3158 0.6842 43 0.3030 0.6970 52 0.0886 0.9114 55 0.1216 0.8784 75 0.0920 0.9080 82 0.4332 0.5668 120 0.2302 0.7698 128 0.1336 0.8664 147 0.4272 0.5728 148 0.0490 0.9510 153 0.0556 0.9444 161 0.0760 0.9240 162 0.4564 0.5436 172 0.5148 0.4852 176 0.1730

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,

Hello, I need to classify (i.e., export a vector with terminal node id's) new cases using a ctree (party package) model based on different cases (learning sample). I tried the where command with the following syntax: > where(tree, newdata=data2) expecting to get terminal nodes of data2 cases based on rules of tree model (data1 as learning sample). However it returned the following error

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 =

Isn't anything in a data frame that is not explicitly numeric a *factor*? -Greg > -----Original Message----- > From: Peter Dalgaard BSA [mailto:p.dalgaard@biostat.ku.dk] > Sent: Friday, December 07, 2001 5:32 PM > To: Erich Neuwirth > Cc: r-devel@stat.math.ethz.ch > Subject: Re: [Rd] question > > > Erich Neuwirth

Dear R wizards--- I have a wrapper on mclapply() that makes it a little easier for me to do multiprocessing. (Posting this may make life easier for other googlers.) I pass a data frame, a vector that tells me what rows should be recomputed, and the function; and I get back a vector or matrix of answers. d <- data.frame( id=1:6, val=11:16 ) loc <- c(TRUE,TRUE,FALSE,TRUE,FALSE,TRUE)
