Description

rfPermute estimates the significance of importance metrics for a Random Forest model by permuting the response variable. It will produce null distributions of importance metrics for each predictor variable and p-values of observed importances. The package also includes several summary and visualization functions for randomForest and rfPermute results. See rfPermuteTutorial() in the package for a guide on running, summarizing, and diagnosing rfPermute and randomForest models.
