Random Classification Forest Identifications

This dialog allows you to use a forest from the Random Classification Forest menu to identify the groups for a new set of values for the X-variables. The votes of an observation belonging to the various groups can also be stored in matrix. The variates and/or factors defining the values to be used to form the identifications must be entered into the Values for identifications field. If you use the same set of variables as the in menu, this will give the identifications for the original data set. Then check the boxes for the information that you want to save, and type the names for the identifiers of the data structures into the corresponding In: fields.
