Package
weka.classifiers.trees
Synopsis
Class for generating a single Extra-Tree. Use with the RandomCommittee meta classifier to generate an Extra-Trees forest for classification or regression. This classifier requires all predictors to be numeric. Missing values are not allowed. Instance weights are taken into account. For more information, see
Pierre Geurts, Damien Ernst, Louis Wehenkel (2006). Extremely randomized trees. Machine Learning. 63(1):3-42.
This classifier is available in the extraTrees package for Weka >= 3.7.8.

Description |
|---|---|
debug |
If set to true, classifier may output additional info to the console. |
k |
Number of attributes to randomly choose at a node. If values is -1, (m - 1) will be used for regression problems, and Math.rint(sqrt(m - 1)) for classification problems, where m is the number of predictors, as specified in Geurts et al. |
nmin |
The minimum number of instances required at a node for splitting to be considered. If value is -1, 5 will be used for regression problems and 2 for classification problems, as specified in Geurts et al. |
seed |
The random number seed to be used. |
