```
class RandomForestModel
| A model trained by RandomForest
|
| numTrees(self)
| Get number of trees in forest.
|
| predict(self, x)
| Predict values for a single data point or an RDD of points using the model trained.
|
| toDebugString(self)
| Full model
|
| totalNumNodes(self)
| Get total number of nodes, summed over all trees in the forest.
|
class RandomForest
| trainClassifier(cls, data, numClassesForClassification, categoricalFeaturesInfo, numTrees, featureSubsetStrategy='auto', impurity='gini', maxDepth=4, maxBins=32, seed=None):
| Method to train a decision tree model for binary or multiclass classification.
|
| :param data: Training dataset: RDD of LabeledPoint.
| Labels should take values {0, 1, ..., numClasses-1}.
| :param numClassesForClassification: number of classes for classification.
| :param categoricalFeaturesInfo: Map storing arity of categorical features.
| E.g., an entry (n -> k) indicates that feature n is categorical
| with k categories indexed from 0: {0, 1, ..., k-1}.
| :param numTrees: Number of trees in the random forest.
| :param featureSubsetStrategy: Number of features to consider for splits at each node.
| Supported: "auto" (default), "all", "sqrt", "log2", "onethird".
| If "auto" is set, this parameter is set based on numTrees:
| if numTrees == 1, set to "all";
| if numTrees > 1 (forest) set to "sqrt".
| :param impurity: Criterion used for information gain calculation.
| Supported values: "gini" (recommended) or "entropy".
| :param maxDepth: Maximum depth of the tree. E.g., depth 0 means 1 leaf node; depth 1 means
| 1 internal node + 2 leaf nodes. (default: 4)
| :param maxBins: maximum number of bins used for splitting features (default: 100)
| :param seed: Random seed for bootstrapping and choosing feature subsets.
| :return: RandomForestModel that can be used for prediction
|
| trainRegressor(cls, data, categoricalFeaturesInfo, numTrees, featureSubsetStrategy='auto', impurity='variance', maxDepth=4, maxBins=32, seed=None):
| Method to train a decision tree model for regression.
|
| :param data: Training dataset: RDD of LabeledPoint.
| Labels are real numbers.
| :param categoricalFeaturesInfo: Map storing arity of categorical features.
| E.g., an entry (n -> k) indicates that feature n is categorical
| with k categories indexed from 0: {0, 1, ..., k-1}.
| :param numTrees: Number of trees in the random forest.
| :param featureSubsetStrategy: Number of features to consider for splits at each node.
| Supported: "auto" (default), "all", "sqrt", "log2", "onethird".

| if numTrees == 1, set to "all";
| if numTrees > 1 (forest) set to "onethird".
| :param impurity: Criterion used for information gain calculation.
| Supported values: "variance".
| :param maxDepth: Maximum depth of the tree. E.g., depth 0 means 1 leaf node; depth 1 means
| 1 internal node + 2 leaf nodes.(default: 4)
| :param maxBins: maximum number of bins used for splitting features (default: 100)
