Description

The R-PCLR algorithm can be used to estimate variable importance in settings of high dimensional data arising from matched case-control studies. The algorithm accounts for the correlation between observations belonging to the same matched stratum, while incorporating some of the powerful features of Random Forests for evaluating the significance of high dimensional feature sets.
