biodiversity

A <code><a rd-options="" href="/link/semforest?package=semtree&version=0.9.16" data-mini-rdoc="semtree::semforest">semforest</a></code> object

Takes a function to apply to the vector of pairwise
diversities. By default, this is the median.

aggregate.fun

A function to calculate biodiversity of a <code><a rd-options="" href="/link/semforest?package=semtree&version=0.9.16" data-mini-rdoc="semtree::semforest">semforest</a></code> object.

semforest

SEM Trees and SEM Forests -- an extension of model-based decision
trees and forests to Structural Equation Models (SEM). SEM trees hierarchically
split empirical data into homogeneous groups each sharing similar data patterns
with respect to a SEM by recursively selecting optimal predictors of these
differences. SEM forests are an extension of SEM trees. They are ensembles of
SEM trees each built on a random sample of the original data. By aggregating
over a forest, we obtain measures of variable importance that are more robust
than measures from single trees. A description of the method was published by
Brandmaier, von Oertzen, McArdle, & Lindenberger (2013; <doi:10.1037/a0030001>)
and Arnold, Voelkle, & Brandmaier (2020; <doi:10.3389/fpsyg.2020.564403>).
