Plot of OOB error rate for the ensemble, with the b-th value being the error rate for the ensemble formed using the first b trees. Error rate is 1-C, where C is Harrell's concordance index. Rates given are between 0 and 1, with 0.5 representing the benchmark value of a procedure based on random guessing. A value of 0 is perfect.
