Model Class Reliance for Random Forests (2020)
Conference Proceeding
Smith, G., Mansilla, R., & Goulding, J. (2020). Model Class Reliance for Random Forests. In Advances in Neural Information Processing Systems 33 pre-proceedings (NeurIPS 2020)

Variable Importance (VI) has traditionally been cast as the process of estimating each variable's contribution to a predictive model's overall performance. Analysis of a single model instance, however, guarantees no insight into a variables relevance... Read More about Model Class Reliance for Random Forests.

FIMS: Identifying, Predicting and Visualising Food Insecurity (2020)
Conference Proceeding
Lucas, B., Smith, A., Smith, G., Perrat, B., Nica-Avram, G., Harvey, J., & Goulding, J. (2020). FIMS: Identifying, Predicting and Visualising Food Insecurity. In WWW '20: Companion Proceedings of the Web Conference 2020 (190-193). https://doi.org/10.1145/3366424.3383538

Food insecurity is a persistent and pernicious problem in the UK. Due to logistical challenges, national food insecurity statistics are unmeasured by government bodies - and this lack of data leads to any local estimates that do exist being routinely...
