VT.forest.double {aVirtualTwins}

Difft by double random forest

Description

A reference class to compute twins via double random forests

Details

VT.forest.double extends VT.forest.

E(Y|T = 1) if T_i = 1 is estimated by OOB predictions from model_trt1. E(Y|T = 0) if T_i = 0 is estimated by OOB predictions from model_trt0. This is what computeTwin1() does.

Then E(Y|T = 1) if T_i = 0 is estimated by model_trt1. Then E(Y|T = 0) if T_i = 1 is estimated by model_trt1. This is what computeTwin2() does.

Fields

model_trt1

a caret/RandomForest/randomForest object for treatment T = 1

model_trt0

a caret/RandomForest/randomForest object for treatment T = 0

...

field from parent class : VT.forest

Methods

computeTwin1()

Compute twin1 with OOB predictions from double forests. See details.

computeTwin2()

Compute twin2 by the other part of data in the other forest. See details.
