Riemann-Lebesgue Forest for Regression

We propose a novel ensemble method called Riemann-Lebesgue Forest (RLF) for regression. The core idea of RLF is to mimic the way how a measurable function can be approximated by partitioning its range into a few intervals. With this idea in mind, we develop a new tree learner named Riemann-Lebesgue Tree which has a chance to split the node from response $Y$ or a direction in feature space $\mathbf{X}$ at each non-terminal node. We generalize the asymptotic performance of RLF …
