# CoVVSURF

R-package in development that implements a combination of clustering of
variables with feature selection using random forests. 

It depends mostly on ClutOfVar and VSURF packages.

Details are given in [https://arxiv.org/abs/1608.06740](https://arxiv.org/abs/1608.06740).

To install the current development version from github, please use:

```{r, eval=FALSE}
if (!requireNamespace("devtools", quietly = TRUE)) {
    install.packages("devtools")}
devtools::install_github("robingenuer/VSURF")
```

The [vignette](https://github.com/robingenuer/CoVVSURF/blob/master/vignettes/intro_CoVVSURF.Rmd) gives instruction to install the package and basic instruction to apply the CoV/VSURF procedure in the context of classification and in the context of regression.
