Frank McQuillan updated MADLIB-925:
-----------------------------------
Labels: starter (was: gsoc2016 starter)
> Improve RF output format for variable importance
> ------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: MADLIB-925
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MADLIB-925
> Project: Apache MADlib
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Module: Random Forest
> Reporter: Frank McQuillan
> Labels: starter
>
> As a user,
> I want to have an easier way of accessing the variable importance output from
> random forest so that I can understand which are the most important variables.
> Current method of getting variable importance for each variable (in a tabular
> format - assuming output table name is `rf_output`):
> ```
> SELECT unnest(regexp_split_to_array(cat_features, ',')) as variable,
> unnest(cat_var_importance) as importance
> FROM rf_output_group, rf_output_summary;
> ```
> This is a cumbersome query to write and has to be written twice - for
> categorical and for continuous features.
