How are "feature_importances_" ordered in Scikit-learn's RandomForestRegressor
python, random-forest, scikit-learn
Solution
As mentioned in the comments, it looks like the order or feature importances is the order of the "x" input variable (which I've converted from Pandas to a Python native data structure). I use this code to generate a list of types that look like this: (feature_name, feature_importance).
zip(x.columns, clf.feature_importances_)
Problem
If I run a model (called clf in this case), I get output that looks like this. How can I tie this to the feature inputs that were used to train the classifier? ``` >>> clf.feature_importances_ array([ 0.01621506, 0.18275428, 0.09963659,... ]) ```
