Re: [Scikit-learn-general] RandomForestRegressor max_features default

Hi Sebastian, Yes. This is intentional. The motivation comes from http://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s10994-006-6226-1#/page-1 where it is shown experimentally that is a good default value on average. Gilles On 13 November 2015 at 11:17, Sebastian Raschka wrote: >

[Scikit-learn-general] RandomForestRegressor max_features default

Hi, it’s probably intended, but I just wanted to mention that I just saw that the RandomForestRegressor defaults are set to “regular” bagging for regression. • If “auto”, then max_features=n_features.
