Random Forest variable importance with missing data [PDF]
Random Forests are commonly applied for data prediction and interpretation. The latter purpose is supported by variable importance measures that rate the relevance of predictors. Yet existing measures can not be computed when data contains missing values.

Bias in Random Forest Variable Importance Measures: Illustrations, Sources and a Solution [PDF]
Variable importance measures for random forests have been receiving increased attention as a means of variable selection in many classification tasks in bioinformatics and related scientific fields, for instance to select a subset of genetic markers ...

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.

AbstractWhen individual classifiers are combined appropriately, a statistically significant increase in classification accuracy is usually obtained. Multiple classifier systems are the result of combining several individual classifiers. Following Breiman’s methodology, in this paper a multiple classifier system based on a “forest” of fuzzy decision ...

An AUC-based Permutation Variable Importance Measure for Random Forests [PDF]
The random forest (RF) method is a commonly used tool for classification with high dimensional data as well as for ranking candidate predictors based on the so-called random forest variable importance measures (VIMs).

Danger: High Power! – Exploring the Statistical Properties of a Test for Random Forest Variable Importance [PDF]
Random forests have become a widely-used predictive model in many scientific disciplines within the past few years. Additionally, they are increasingly popular for assessing variable importance, e.g., in genetics and bioinformatics.

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.

Random forests are known to be good for data mining of classification tasks, because random forests are robust for datasets having insufficient information possibly with some errors. But applying random forests blindly may not produce good results, and a

Classification of GLM Flashes Using Random Forests
[The Geostationary Lightning Mapper (GLM) detects total lightning continuously from space, and does not distinguish intra‐cloud (IC) from cloud‐to‐ground (CG) lightning. This research focuses on differentiating CG and IC lightning detected by GLM using a

Random Shapley Forests: Cooperative Game Based Random Forests with Consistency [PDF]
The original random forests algorithm has been widely used and has achieved excellent performance for the classification and regression tasks. However, the research on the theory of random forests lags far behind its applications.
