Description
Explaining and Visualizing Random Forests in Terms of Variable Importance.
Description
A set of tools to help explain which variables are most important in a random forests. Various variable importance measures are calculated and visualized in different settings in order to get an idea on how their importance changes depending on our criteria (Hemant Ishwaran and Udaya B.
