Body: Exploring Relationships in Body Dimensions

In OTE: Optimal Trees Ensembles for Regression, Classification and Class Membership Probability Estimation

Description

The Body data set consists of 507 observations on 24 predictor variables including age, weight, hight and 21 body dimensions. All the 507 observations are on individuals, 247 men and 260 women, in the age of twenties and thirties with a small number of old people. The class variable is gender having two categories male and female.
