[R-sig-Geo] Random forest for forest cover classification

[Jin Li]

Hi Enoch,
Here is a book chapter that provides R scripts for using random forest to
classify categorical data: 'Predicting seabed hardness using random forest
in R' 2013.

   - DOI:
   - 10.1016/B978-0-12-411511-8.00011-6.
   - In book: Data Mining Applications with R.
   -
   - Publisher: Elsevier.
   - Editors: Y. Zhao and Y. Cen

If you are looking for further materials, the R package, spm, provides more
advanced functions, including RFcv with an example for categorical data.

Hope this helps.
Kind regards,
Jin
