[R] Machine Learning and Cluster-Correlated Data

[Yohann Mansiaux]

Dear R-help,

I'm trying to apply machine learning methods, such as Random Forest, 
Boosted Trees or Multivariate Adaptive Regression Splines for supervised 
classification issues.

In a epidemiological study, i'm dealing with high dimensional 
cluster-correlated data, each cluster corresponding to an household. If 
methods such as RF++ ou MASAL permit to deal with repeated data, I don't 
know how to apply Data Mining or Machine Learning methods to such problems.

Any ideas ?

Thanks !
