隨機森林生存分析與 randomForestSRC

正如隨機森林演算法可以應用於迴歸和分類任務一樣，它也可以擴充套件到生存分析。

在下面的示例中，生存模型適合並使用來自 CRAN 的包 randomForestSRC 進行預測，評分和效能分析。

require(randomForestSRC)

set.seed(130948) #Other seeds give similar comparative results
x1   <- runif(1000)
y    <- rnorm(1000, mean = x1, sd = .3)
data <- data.frame(x1 = x1, y = y)
head(data)
