Hello R-devel: This is an update on my R package, "woods" that does bagged classification trees using data structures in C. Most of the comments of my earlier post still apply, with some additions (noted *)
(i) fits a single classification tree to dataset (R function CT) (ii) basic functionality of Random Forest, e.g. bagged trees with choices about sample size, with/without replacement, size of (random) subset of covariates drawn when nodes are split. Result contains the oob votes, and a matrix representing the forest structure. *(iii) for each element of the sample, discovers all unique paths from a root node to a terminal node as a sequence of splits on covariates and uses these to fit a lasso regresssion to the binary response using a full c-implementation of the Turlach lasso2 function gl1ce. It is now available at http://mysite.verizon.net/izmirlian/woods_1.00.tar.gz Grant Izmirlian NCI ______________________________________________ R-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel
