RANDOM FORESTS FOR CLASSIFICATION IN ECOLOGY

open access: yesEcology, 2007
Classification procedures are some of the most widely used statistical methods in ecology. Random forests (RF) is a new and powerful statistical classifier that is well established in other disciplines but is relatively unknown in ecology. Advantages of RF compared to other statistical classifiers include (1) very high classification accuracy; (2) a ...
