Table 7.
Cardiovascular disease data: Top five most important variables for each method. BART-BMA and BART scores show the mean variable inclusion probability, RF scores show the mean decrease in Gini index expressed as a probability. As n > 200 the GRID method was used to search for the subset of best splitting rules.
