Relative Importance for Linear Regression in R: The Package relaimpo
Relative importance is a topic that has seen a lot of interest in recent years, particularly in applied work. The R package relaimpo implements six different metrics for assessing relative importance of regressors in the linear model, two of which are recommended averaging over orderings of regressors and a newly proposed metric (Feldman 2005) called pmvd. Apart from delivering the metrics them...
متن کاملStatistical Practice Estimators of Relative Importance in Linear Regression Based on Variance Decomposition
Assigning shares of “relative importance” to each of a set of regressors is one of the key goals of researchers applying linear regression, particularly in sciences that work with observational data. Although the topic is quite old, advances in computational capabilities have led to increased applications of computer-intensive methods like averaging over orderings that enable a reasonable decom...
متن کاملVariable Importance Assessment in Regression: Linear Regression versus Random Forest
Relative importance of regressor variables is an old topic that still awaits a satisfactory solution. When interest is in attributing importance in linear regression, averaging over orderings methods for decomposing R2 are among the state-of-theart methods, although the mechanism behind their behavior is not (yet) completely understood. Random forests—a machinelearning tool for classification a...

متن کاملRelative Importance Analysis: A Useful Supplement to Regression Analysis
This article advocates for the wider use of relative importance indices as a supplement to multiple regression analyses. The goal of such analyses is to partition explained variance among multiple predictors to better understand the role played by each predictor in a regression equation. Unfortunately, when predictors are correlated, typically relied upon metrics are flawed indicators of variab...
