A new approach for interpreting Random Forest models and its application to the biology of ageing

MOTIVATION: This work uses the Random Forest (RF) classification algorithm to predict if a gene is over-expressed, under-expressed or has no change in expression with age in the brain. RFs have high predictive power, and RF models can be interpreted using a feature (variable) importance measure. How...
