In the Scikit-Learn documentation the feature importances are described as
coming from the relative depths features are used as decision nodes,
averaged across trees in the forest. Does anyone know which paper discusses
this method? Breiman's original paper seems to just talk about randomly
permuting the values of each variable and observing the change in the
objective function.

Mobile security can be enabling, not merely restricting. Employees who
bring their own devices (BYOD) to work are irked by the imposition of MDM
restrictions. Mobile Device Manager Plus allows you to control only the
apps on BYO-devices by containerizing them, leaving personal data untouched!
