Stabilizing Number of Trees. #23

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
Hi Abhishek,

I am using random forest package for my thesis. its great and simple.
I have few questions regarding initial settings. It will be a great help to me 
if you can help me out. 

I am trying to stabilize number of trees to be used. My Professor wants 
me to use as less trees as possible with out compromising performance. Is there 
any standard way that I can accomplish this.

Second question what is the role of seed value in the algorithm. Is it used to 
get the bootstrap sample to grow the tree?. Can I change the seed value.
