Segmentation of PMSE Data Using Random Forests
EISCAT VHF radar data are used for observing, monitoring, and understanding Earth’s upper atmosphere. This paper presents an approach to segment Polar Mesospheric Summer Echoes (PMSE) from datasets obtained from EISCAT VHF radar data. The data consist of

Given an ensemble of randomized regression trees, it is possible to restructure them as a collection of multilayered neural networks with particular connection weights. Following this principle, we reformulate the random forest method of Breiman (2001) into a neural network setting, and in turn propose two new hybrid procedures that we call neural ...

A Multi-Task Framework for Action Prediction
Predicting the categories of actions in partially observed videos is a challenging task in the computer vision field. The temporal progress of an ongoing action is of great importance for action prediction, since actions can present different ...

Splitting on categorical predictors in random forests [PDF]
One reason for the widespread success of random forests (RFs) is their ability to analyze most datasets without preprocessing. For example, in contrast to many other statistical methods and machine learning approaches, no recoding such as dummy coding is

Non-unitarisable representations and random forests [PDF]
We establish a connection between Dixmier's unitarisability problem and the expected degree of random forests on a group. As a consequence, a residually finite group is non-unitarisable if its first L2-Betti number is non-zero or if it is finitely ...

Tuning parameters in random forests
Breiman's (2001) random forests are a very popular class of learning algorithms often able to produce good predictions even in high-dimensional frameworks, with no need to accurately tune its inner parameters.

In the article by Chen et al,1 the authors used Random Survival Forests (RSF) as part of their approach for analyzing the data. In this note, we will explain RSF in a nontechnical way; precise details of the RSF method are described in the article by Ishwaran et al.2 RSF are an adaptation of Random Forests (RF)3 designed to be used for survival data ...

Soil Mapping Based on the Integration of the Similarity-Based Approach and Random Forests
Digital soil mapping (DSM) is currently the primary framework for predicting the spatial variation of soil information (soil type or soil properties). Random forests and similarity-based methods have been used widely in DSM.

Consistency of random forests [PDF]
Random forests are a learning algorithm proposed by Breiman [Mach. Learn. 45 (2001) 5--32] that combines several randomized decision trees and aggregates their predictions by averaging. Despite its wide usage and outstanding practical performance, little

Aggregated Recommendation through Random Forests
Aggregated recommendation refers to the process of suggesting one kind of items to a group of users. Compared to user-oriented or item-oriented approaches, it is more general and, therefore, more appropriate for cold-start recommendation.
