Branch-Exclusive Splits Trees

Documentation for package ‘BESTree’ version 0.5.2

Acc	Computes the proportion of matching terms in two vectors of the same length. Used to compute the accuracy for prediction on test set.
BaggedBEST	Performs Bootstrap Aggregating of BEST trees
BEST	Main function of the package. It produces Classification Trees with Branch-Exclusive variables.
BESTForest	Generates a random forest of BEST trees
Data	Data generated according to decision tree for simulation purposes
Fit	Data generated according to decision tree for simulation purposes
ForgeVA	Quickly build the Available Variable list necessary for BEST This list contains details as to which variables is available for the partitioning. It also contains which variables are gating variables.
FPredict	Emits prediction from a forest of BEST's
MPredict	Classify a set of new observation points
Predict	Classify a new observation point
TreePruning	Uses a Validation Set to select the best trees within the list of pruned trees.
VI	Produces a variable important analysis using the mean decrease in node impurity
