متن کاملPick Your Flavor of Random Forest
The ModelMap package (Freeman, 2009) for R (R Development Core Team, 2008) has added two additional variants of random forests: quantile regression forests and conditional inference forests. The quantregForest package (Meinshausen and Schiesser, 2015) is used for quantile regression forest (QRF) models. QRF models provide the ability to map the predicted median and individual quantiles. This ma...
متن کاملConvergent Evolution: Pick Your Poison Carefully
Genomic and biochemical analyses reveal that two independently evolved serine protease venoms in mammals and lizards have converged on nearly identical protein structures. Likewise, in two groups of frog, an identical toxin, caerulein, has arisen repeatedly from unique genes in those lineages.
