In predictive modeling applications, it is often of interest to determine the relative contribution of subsets of features in explaining an outcome; this is often called variable importance. It is useful to consider variable importance as a function of the unknown, underlying data-generating mechanism rather than the specific predictive algorithm used to fit the data. This package provides functions that, given fitted values from predictive algorithms, compute nonparametric estimates of variable importance based on $R^2$, deviance, classification accuracy, and area under the receiver operating characteristic curve, along with asymptotically valid confidence intervals for the true importance.
