Early Stopping is checked to perform early stopping. If checked, the process stops growing additional<br />

trees if adding more trees doesn’t improve the validation statistic. If not checked, the process continues<br />

until the specified number of trees is reached. This option appears only if validation is used.<br />

Multiple Fits over number of terms is checked to create a bootstrap forest for several values of Number<br />

of terms sampled per split. The lower value is specified above by the Number of terms samples per split<br />

option. The upper value is specified by the following option:<br />

Max Number of terms is the maximum number of terms to consider for a split.<br />

Bootstrap Forest Report<br />

The Bootstrap Forest report is shown in Figure 13.11.<br />

The results on the report are described here:<br />

Model Validation - Set Summaries provides fit statistics for all the models fit if you selected the<br />

Multiple Fits option on the options window.<br />
