Janitza et al.(2015) do not use the "standard" permutation variable importance but the cross-validated permutation variable importance for the novel test approach. The cross-validated permutation variable importance is not based on the out-of-bag observations but uses a similar strategy which is inspired by the cross-validation procedure. The novel test approach can be applied for classification trees as well as for regression trees. However, the use of the novel testing approach has not been tested for regression trees so far, so this routine is meant for the expert user only and its current state is rather experimental. authors: - family-names: Celik given-names: Ender email: celik.p.ender@gmail.com repository: https://endercp.r-universe.dev commit: 177e2c3f74381c51bfa54f7a6d66f9fc6cbe16bc date-released: '2015-12-12' contact: - family-names: Celik given-names: Ender email: celik.p.ender@gmail.com
