Implement weighted feature sampling #13

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
It has been reported that feature selection problems with a gigantic number of 
features and only a tiny fraction of relevant features may prove to be 
problematic for RFs, however, which can be remedied by adapting sampling of 
features towards more informative ones. This will make base learners more 
accurate while retaining diversity of learners in the ensembles. See e.g.
