The verbose option gives a display like: > rf.500 <- + randomForest(new.x,trn.y,do.trace=20,ntree=100,nodesize=500, + importance=T) | Out-of-bag | Tree | MSE %Var(y) | 20 | 0.9279 100.84 |
What is the meaning of %var(y)>100%? I expected that to correspond to a model that was worse than random, but the predictions seem much better than that on the o-o-bag estimates from predict(rf.500). -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Random-Forest--var%28y%29-tp18295412p18295412.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
