1. A political scientist wants to understand the predictors of household income. She has
collected a set of 2000 features on 5000 observations. To fit her model, the researcher has come
up with the following plan. She wants to use random forests (a method that models interactions)
but her software implementation is too slow taking >20 minutes to run. So she will first run the
lasso using using glmnet(with cross-validation) and extract the predictors P with nonzero
coefficients in the selected model. Then she will use just the set P in the random forest. Do you
think this is a reasonable idea? Give details. 4 pts
