I should add -- I switched: RFimplem = "ranger"
to RFimplem = "randomForest"
and it works without issue. So, perhaps there is some internal mtry defaults specifically for the ranger implementation that are causing problems?
Hi @mickeycampbell, Thanks a lot for your usage of VSURF, and especially to detect this bug. The value of mtry was indeed too high in some cases: it is now fixed on the github development version, that you can test with:
remotes::install_github("robingenuer/VSURF")
As a matter of fact, the bug was also appearing with RFimplem = "randomForest"
but was depending on the random seed.
Thanks for improving the package !

Hello,
Big fan of VSURF here! Thanks for your excellent work.
However, I am running into an issue that I have not previously encountered in my many uses of your function:
The dataset I am using initially (linked below) has 61 rows and 157 columns (one response column and 156 candidate predictor columns).

Here's my code:
It makes it through the thresholding and interpretation steps, but appears to crash on the prediction step:
Here's information on my R installation:
I am using VSURF version 1.2.0. Thanks in advance for any help you can provide!
