+1 for changing this example to have error bars represent 5 & 95 percentiles or 25 and 75 percentiles (quartiles).
Or event bootstrapped confidence intervals or the mean feature importance for each variable. This might be a bit too verbose for an example though. > Perhaps more importantly - is a visual indication of the spread of feature importances in an ensemble actually a useful thing to plot? Does it serve a diagnostic value? Yes. Otherwise people might be over-confident in the stability of those feature importances. -- Olivier _______________________________________________ scikit-learn mailing list scikit-learn@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/scikit-learn
