R programming, Random forest through caret
r, r-caret, random-forest
Solution
Most packages contain a manual, and many also include vignettes.
A quick look at the CRAN page for `caret` http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/caret/index.html shows that this packages is particularly well documented.
It contains 4 vignettes:
- caret Manual – Data and Functions
- caret Manual – Variable Selection
- caret Manual – Model Building
- caret Manual – Variable Importance
Start there.
Problem
I'm newbie in R and I want to implement the random forest algorithm using the caret package. Is there any useful tutorial, step by step?
