1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Ensemble methods such as random forest works well on high-dimensional datasets. However, when the number of features is extremely large compared to the number of samples and the percentage of truly informative feature is very small, performance of traditional random forest decline significantly. To this end, we develop a novel approach that enhance the performance of traditional random forest by reducing the contribution of trees whose nodes are populated with less informative features. The proposed method selects eligible subsets at each node by weighted random sampling as opposed to simple random sampling in traditional random forest. We refer to this modified random forest algorithm as "Enriched Random Forest". Using several high-dimensional micro-array datasets, we evaluate the performance of our approach in both regression and classification settings. In addition, we also demonstrate the effectiveness of balanced leave-one-out cross-validation to reduce computational load and decrease sample size while computing feature weights. Overall, the results indicate that enriched random forest improves the prediction accuracy of traditional random forest, especially when relevant features are very few.
