GLM trees in ranger #327

Open cargomoose opened 6 years ago

cargomoose commented 6 years ago

Could you please implement glm trees in ranger, with glms used as a (multidimensional) splitting method at every node, along with the usual RF random selection of a subset of variables at each node.

What about mobForest?

Hi Marvin,

Thanks for following up. Yes, I am aware of the other implementations, especially those based on the party package, but it would be nice to have it all as part of ranger and its wonderful and extensive functionality, particularly the new quantile regression capability/

It's a nice feature and I'd love to have it in ranger. However, I probably won't implement it myself in the near future. Sorry for this standard reply...
