RandomForestRegression
Random forest regressor that averages predictions from multiple decision trees.
Random Forest is a bagging ensemble that fits n_estimators decision trees,
each on a bootstrap sample of the training data. At each split only a random
subset of features is considered, decorrelating the trees and reducing variance
relative to a single tree. The final prediction is the mean of all individual
tree predictions.
Key hyperparameters include n_estimators, criterion, max_depth,
min_samples_split, min_samples_leaf, max_features, bootstrap,
and random_state. The implementation wraps scikit-learn's
RandomForestRegressor.

Parameters
- n_estimators : integer, default=

- min_samples_leaf : integer, default=
1 - The minimum number of samples required to be at a leaf node.
- min_weight_fraction_leaf : number, default=
0.0 - The minimum weighted fraction of the sum total of weights required to be at a leaf node.
- max_features, default=
sqrt - The number of features to consider when looking for the best split.
- max_leaf_nodes, default=
None - Grow trees with max_leaf_nodes in best-first fashion.
- min_impurity_decrease : number, default=
0.0 - A node will be split if this split induces a decrease of the impurity greater than or equal to this value.
- bootstrap : boolean, default=
True - Whether bootstrap samples are used when building trees.
- oob_score : boolean, default=
False - Whether to use out-of-bag samples to estimate the generalization score.

None - The seed of the pseudo-random number generator to use when shuffling the data.
- warm_start : boolean, default=
False - When set to True, reuse the solution of the previous call to fit and add more estimators to the ensemble.
- ccp_alpha : number, default=
0.0 - Complexity parameter used for Minimal Cost-Complexity Pruning.
- max_samples, default=
None - If bootstrap is True, the number of samples to draw from X to train each base estimator.
Methods
