Abstract: It is known that random forest has good performance for data sets containing some irrelevant features, and it is also known that the performance of random forest is very good at ozone day prediction data set that is supposed to have some irrelevant features. On the other hand, it is known that when data sets do not contain irrelevant features, RBF networks are good at prediction tasks. Moreover, in general, we do not have exact knowledge about irrelevant features, because data space is usually far greater than available data for training. So we want to test that the two facts are true or not for the ozone data set. Experiments were done with random forests and RBF networks using k-means clustering, and showed that RBF networks are slightly better than random forest for the ozone day prediction.
