similar to: proximity on prediction in cforest

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

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 =

Greetings R Users! I am posting to inquire about the proximity matrix in the randomForest R-package. I am having difficulty pushing very large data through the algorithm and it appears to hang on the building of the prox matrix. I have read on Dr. Breiman's website that in the original code a choice can be made between using an N x N matrix OR to increase the ability to compute large

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 need help with the randomForest prediction. i run the folowing code: > iris.rf <- randomForest(Species ~ ., data=iris, > importance=TRUE,keep.forest=TRUE, proximity=TRUE) > pr<-predict(iris.rf,iris,predict.all=T) > iris.rf$votes[53,] setosa versicolor virginica 0.0000000 0.8074866 0.1925134 > table(pr$individual[53,])/500 versicolor virginica 0.928

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,

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

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 there I'm experiencing some problems using the party package (specifically mob) for prediction. I have a real scalar y I want to predict from a real valued vector x and an integral vector z. mob seemed the ideal choice from the documentation. The first problem I had was at some nodes in a partitioning tree, the components of x may be extremely highly correlated or effectively constant

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

Hi, I was reading an article recently about how google ranks results (among many other things of course) based on the proximity of the search terms in the source documents. In addition, the position of the search terms in the search query string itself is also taken into consideration when determining how important each term is. Does Xapian do something similar - at least for the first part?

Lucene has a syntax "foo bar"~10 for finding foo within 10 words of bar. Does ferret support this feature? (the ~ is used for fuzzy queries) Does rdig? This could be a deal breaker for me ''cos I really need proximity searches -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hi, Can anyone tell me if the Motorola Q has its Bluetooth always on like the IPhone? I want to use the Motorola Q in a Proximity Detection setup like that described on nerdvittles.com. I know the Treo 650 does not work well since the display must be on for the bluetooth to be on and this eats power. Thanks Chuck Bunn

Hi there, I'm trying to prep some data for a persp() surface plot representing the predictions from a regression with two inddependent variables. The regression model "m3" has an intercept, 2 linear terms, and 2 squared terms. The coefficients are given by coef(m3). My approach to generating the predictions for a range of each of my IVs, "s" and "d" was
