Comments on: "A Random Forest Guided Tour" by G. Biau and E. Scornet

6 Apr 2016  ·  Sylvain Arlot, Robin Genuer ·

This paper is a comment on the survey paper by Biau and Scornet (2016) about random forests. We focus on the problem of quantifying the impact of each ingredient of random forests on their performance. We show that such a quantification is possible for a simple pure forest , leading to conclusions that could apply more generally. Then, we consider "hold-out" random forests, which are a good middle point between "toy" pure forests and Breiman's original random forests.
