Thank you very much for the reply to our problem.
Yes and the difference is in the sample size of training data sets.
#1 sample n=3D100
#2 sample n=3D200
#3 sample n=3D300
#4 sample n>900

Two quick follow-up questions:

(1) A large data set will take a lot longer computing time of going through
the feature selection process correct?
(2) For a large data set, do I need to have any special consideration of
parameter settings concerning Random Forest/AdaBoostM1 learning algorithms?

Best regards,
Shu-Ju

Maybe your new data is significantly different from the old data. If so, <b=

you could try to retrain your model on the new data.<br>
<br>
I had a situation like that where I was looking at manufacturing data. <br>

enough to make my model useless.<br>
