GeoRF is the Python-based code repository for the paper "geoRF: a Geospatial Random Forest". It is a bagged tree ensemble for geospatial data that introduces two split types specifically designed for geospatial features: a diagonal split and a Gaussian split. More information can be found in the paper: full-text access.
Clone the repository to use the geoRF model.
git clone https://github.com/margotgeerts/geoRF.gitfrom geoRF import GeoRFRegressor
# instantiate GeoRFRegressor
regr = GeoRFRegressor(n_estimators=100, n_jobs=-1)
# train the model, give training data and the column indices of the geospatial features
regr.fit(X_train, y_train, geo_features=[0,1])
