RandomForests is a major advance in data mining and knowledge discovery, offering high levels of predictive accuracy and an innovative set of graphical displays to reveal unexpected patterns in data. RandomForests is best suited for the analysis of complex data structures embedded in small to moderate data sets containing typically less than 10,000 rows but allowing for more than 1 million columns. RandomForests has therefore been enthusiastically endorsed by many biomedical and pharmaceutical researchers.

A RandomForest is a collection of CART trees that are used to predict via a consensus or voting mechanism, where each tree is grown at least partially at random. A large number of large trees are grown and results can be remarkably accurate. Much of the insight provided by RandomForests is generated by methods applied after the trees are grown and include new technology for identifying clusters or segments in data as well as new methods for ranking the importance of variables. Ongoing research on RandomForests is being undertaken by Salford Systems in collaboration with Professor Adele Cutler, the surviving co-author (with Leo Breiman) of RandomForests.
Only Students and Professors qualify for these academic discounts. Students must provide a currently dated Student ID along with the Current Class Schedule. Professors must provide a
currently dated School ID and a Course Syllabus. Education proof/verification must be received and approved before the lisenceing information is released.
Windows:
Minimum System Requirements
We suggest the following minimum and recommended, system requirements:
•80486 processor or higher.
•512MB of random-access memory (RAM). This value depends on the "size" you have
purchased (64MB, 128MB, 256MB, 512MB, 1GIG). While all versions may run with a
minimum of 32MB of RAM, we CANNOT GUARANTEE they will. We highly recommend that
you follow the recommended memory configuration that applies to the particular
version you have purchased. Using less than the recommended memory configuration
results in hard drive paging, reducing performance significantly, or application
instability.
•Hard disk with 40 MB of free space for program files, data file access utility,
and sample data files.
•Additional hard disk space for scratch files (with the required space
contingent on the size of the input data set).
•CD-ROM or DVD drive.
•Windows XP/2003/2008 and Windows 7.
Recommended System Requirements
Because Salford tools are extremely CPU intensive, the faster your CPU, the
faster they will run. For optimal performance, we strongly recommend they run on
a machine with a system configuration equal to, or greater than, the following:
•Pentium 4 processor running 2.0+ GHz.
•2 GIG of random-access memory (RAM). This value depends on the "size" you have
purchased (64MB, 128MB, 256MB, 512MB, 1GIG). While all versions may run with a
minimum of 32MB of RAM, we CANNOT GUARANTEE they will. We highly recommend that
you follow the recommended memory configuration that applies to the particular
version you have purchased. Using less than the recommended memory configuration
results in hard drive paging, reducing performance significantly, or application
instability.
•Hard disk with 40 MB of free space for program files, data file access utility,
and sample data files.
•Additional hard disk space for scratch files (with the required space
contingent on the size of the input data set).
•CD-ROM or DVD drive.
•Windows XP/2003/2008 and Windows 7.
•2 GIG of additional hard disk space available for virtual memory and temporary
files.
Ensuring Proper Permissions
If you are installing on a machine that uses security permissions, please read
the following note.
•You must belong to the Administrator group on Windows XP/2003/2008 and Windows
7 to be able to properly install and license. Once the application is installed
and licensed, any member with read/write/modify permissions to the applications
/bin and temp directories can execute and run the application.
UNIX/Linux
Supported Architectures
•Alpha: DEC 3000 or AlphaServer running Tru64 UNIX 5.0 or higher
•Linux/i386: i586 or higher processor; Linux 2.4 or higher kernel; glibc 2.3 or
higher
•Linux/AMD64: AMD64 or Intel EM64T processor; Linux 2.6 or higher kernel; glibc
2.3 or higher
•Sun: UltraSPARC processor; Solaris 2.6 or higher
•RS/6000: POWER or PowerPC processor; AIX 4.2 or higher
•HP 9000: PA/RISC 1.1 or higher processor; HP/UX 11.x
•SGI: MIPS 4 or higher processor; IRIX 6.5
Minimum System Requirements
•Minimum RAM requirement for all non-GUI app's is 32 MB of random-access memory
(RAM). This value depends on the "size" you have purchased (64MB, 128MB, 256MB,
512MB, 1GIG).
•Hard disk with 40 MB of free space for program files, data file access utility,
and sample data files.
•Additional hard disk space for scratch files (with the required space
contingent on the size of the input data set).
Recommended System Requirements
•Recommended random-access memory (RAM) is 1.5 times the licensed data limit (32
MB, 64 MB, etc), up to the maximum permitted by the target architecture. On UNIX
systems, it is generally recommended that there be at least twice as much swap
space as there is RAM.
•Hard disk with 40 MB of free space for program files, data file access utility,
and sample data files.
•Additional hard disk space for scratch files (with the required space
contingent on the size of the input data set).
All Salford apps are very CPU intensive, so more memory and a faster CPU are
always helpful.
