Projection pursuit is used to choose a projection of the variables that best separates the groups. Using linear combinations of variables to separate groups takes the correlation between variables into account, which allows the model to outperform a traditional decision tree when the separation between groups occurs in combinations of variables. Single trees can be assembled into random forests for improved accuracy. Implements projection pursuit classification trees (Lee, Cook, Park and Lee (2013) ) and projection pursuit forests (da Silva, Cook and Lee (2021) ), following the earlier 'PPforest' package. authors: - family-names: Vidal given-names: Andrés email: andres@andresvidal.dev - family-names: Silva given-names: Natalia name-particle: da repository: https://cran.r-universe.dev commit: 92d5b49c573fe5beb601b264858d6ca0b1b9d155 date-released: '2026-07-10' contact: - family-names: Vidal given-names: Andrés email: andres@andresvidal.dev
