cforest
is a random forest based on conditional inference
trees, using the implementation in the party
package.
These trees can be used for classification, regression or survival
analysis, but only the survival part has been properly tested so far.emil.fit.cforest(x, y, formula = y ~ ., ctrl.fun = cforest_unbiased, ...)
cforest_control
.ctrl.fun
.cforest
model.cforest
are set using a
cforest_control
object. You should read the documentation
as the default values are chosen for technical reasons, not predictive
performance!
Pay special attention to mtry
which is set very low by default.emil
