DynForest (version 1.1.3)

compute_OOBerror: Compute the Out-Of-Bag error (OOB error)

Description

Compute the Out-Of-Bag error (OOB error)

Usage

compute_OOBerror(DynForest_obj, IBS.min = 0, IBS.max = NULL, ncores = NULL)

Value

compute_OOBerror() function return a list with the following elements:

data	A list containing the data used to grow the trees
rf	A table with each tree in column. Provide multiple characteristics about the tree building
type	Outcome type
times	A numeric vector containing the time-to-event for all subjects
cause	Indicating the cause of interest
causes	A numeric vector containing the causes indicator
Inputs	A list of 3 elements: Longitudinal, Numeric and Factor. Each element contains the names of the predictors
Longitudinal.model	A list of longitudinal markers containing the formula used for modeling in the random forest
param	A list containing the hyperparameters
oob.err	A numeric vector containing the OOB error for each subject
oob.pred	Outcome prediction for all subjects
IBS.range	A vector containing the IBS min and max

Arguments

DynForest_obj

DynForest object containing the dynamic random forest used on train data

IBS.min

(Only with survival outcome) Minimal time to compute the Integrated Brier Score. Default value is set to 0.

IBS.max

(Only with survival outcome) Maximal time to compute the Integrated Brier Score. Default value is set to the maximal time-to-event found.

ncores

Number of cores used to grow trees in parallel. Default value is the number of cores of the computer-1.
