Figure 3

Feature importance evaluation by means of random forests. Importance is calculated and shown as the rescaled mean (standard deviation) decrease in accuracy over 1000 independent runs (green colour). Boxplots represent a null feature importance distribution obtained by permuting the outcome randomly for 1000 times. Variables significant at the 0.1 level (p-values in red) are shown for current asthma (upper panel), current wheeze (middle panel), and doctor's diagnosed eczema (lower panel) using the whole feature set as input.
