RandomSubSpace (3.6) (legacy)

This method constructs a decision tree based classifier that maintains highest accuracy on training data and improves on generalization accuracy as it grows in complexity. The classifier consists of multiple trees constructed systematically by pseudorandomly selecting subsets of components of the feature vector, that is, trees constructed in randomly chosen subspaces. For more information, see Tin Kam Ho (1998). The Random Subspace Method for Constructing Decision Forests. IEEE Transactions on Pattern Analysis and Machine Intelligence. 20(8):832-844.

Class column
Choose the column that contains the target variable.
Preliminary Attribute Check

The Preliminary Attribute Check tests the underlying classifier against the DataTable specification at the inport of the node. Columns that are compatible with the classifier are marked with a green 'ok'. Columns which are potentially not compatible are assigned a red error message.

Important: If a column is marked as 'incompatible', it does not necessarily mean that the classifier cannot be executed! Sometimes, the error message 'Cannot handle String class' simply means that no nominal values are available (yet). This may change during execution of the predecessor nodes.

Classifier Options

P: Size of each subspace: < 1: percentage of the number of attributes >=1: absolute number of attributes

S: Random number seed. (default 1)

I: Number of iterations. (default 10)

W: Full name of base classifier. (default: weka.classifiers.trees.REPTree)

:

M: Set minimum number of instances per leaf (default 2).

V: Set minimum numeric class variance proportion of train variance for split (default 1e-3).

N: Number of folds for reduced error pruning (default 3).

S: Seed for random data shuffling (default 1).

P: No pruning.

L: Maximum tree depth (default -1, no maximum)
