CForestModel

character specifying the type of the test statistic to be
applied.

teststat

character specifying how to compute the distribution of the
test statistic.

testtype

value of the test statistic that must be exceeded in
order to implement a split.

mincriterion

number of trees to grow in a forest.

ntree

number of input variables randomly sampled as candidates at each
node for random forest like algorithms.

mtry

logical indicating whether sampling of observations is done
with or without replacement.

replace

fraction of number of observations to draw without
replacement (only relevant if <code>replace = FALSE</code>).

fraction

An implementation of the random forest and bagging ensemble algorithms
utilizing conditional inference trees as base learners.

Meta-package for statistical and machine learning with a unified
interface for model fitting, prediction, performance assessment, and
presentation of results.  Approaches for model fitting and prediction of
numerical, categorical, or censored time-to-event outcomes include
traditional regression models, regularization methods, tree-based methods,
support vector machines, neural networks, ensembles, data preprocessing,
filtering, and model tuning and selection.  Performance metrics are provided
for model assessment and can be estimated with independent test sets, split
sampling, cross-validation, or bootstrap resampling.  Resample estimation
can be executed in parallel for faster processing and nested in cases of
model tuning and selection.  Modeling results can be summarized with
descriptive statistics; calibration curves; variable importance; partial
dependence plots; confusion matrices; and ROC, lift, and other performance
curves.
