Variable selection using random forests

This paper proposes, focusing on random forests, the increasingly used statistical method for classification and regression problems introduced by Leo Breiman in 2001, to investigate two classical issues of variable selection. The first one is to find important variables for interpretation and the second one is more restrictive and try to design a good prediction model. The main contribution is...

Variable Selection Using Random Forests

One of the main topic in the development of predictive models is the identification of variables which are predictors of a given outcome. Automated model selection methods, such as backward or forward stepwise regression, are classical solutions to this problem, but are generally based on strong assumptions about the functional form of the model or the distribution of residuals. In this paper a...

A computationally fast variable importance test for random forests for high-dimensional data

Random forests are a commonly used tool for classification with high-dimensional data as well as for ranking candidate predictors based on the so-called variable importance measures. There are different importance measures for ranking predictor variables, the two most common measures are the Gini importance and the permutation importance. The latter has been found to be more reliable than the G...
