Dear list,

I have a question related to the skicit-learn python library
RandomForestClassifier. I had build a python script using this tool to
apply Random Forest classification method on my dataset.

First of all I would like to get from the RandomForestClassifier the last
optimized tree which we used for predict the data (for visualization
purposes). Do you know a way to achieve somehow from the sklearn structure?

I do not see anywhere I find just this information about for each fitted
tree in clf.estimators_[tree number].tree_.:

forest.estimators_[tree number].tree_.feature == Column index of the
feature which is used for split
iris.feature_names[forest.estimators_[tree number].tree_.feature == Column
name of the feature which is used for split
forest.estimators_[tree number].tree_.threshold == Splitting value
forest.estimators_[tree number].tree_.impurity == Gini index value
forest.estimators_[tree number].tree_.n_node_samples == Number of the
samples on parent nodes.
forest.estimators_[tree number].tree_.children_left ==Information about
tree structure.
forest.estimators_[tree number].tree_.children_right ==Information about
tree structure
forest.estimators_[tree number].tree_.value ==Number of the samples of each
classes in the end node

My second problem I do not understand exactly what is represented the value
matrix for each fitted trees. If I export the dot format file we can see
that the number of n_samples and the each classes value in the end node is
disagreed each other.
You know exactly what is represented the value matrix in
clf.estimators_[tree number].tree_.value?

For example:
The dot format look like this:

"digraph Tree {
0 [label="petal width (cm) <= 0.7500\nimpurity = 0.666044444444\nsamples =
98", shape="box"] ;
1 [label="impurity = 0.0000\nsamples = 29\nvalue = [ 49.   0.   0.]",
shape="box"] ;
0 -> 1 ;"

And here is that 1. node is a end node and in this node we have 29 samples
than the nvalue: [49,0,0] which said that from first class we had 49
samples and other two classes 0-0 samples.If it is a predicted value for
the whole dataset than from where we know which class is in the end of node?

Thank you advance for help.

Best regards: Zsofi
