+ (description
+ "This package provides tools for the variable selection from random
+forests using both backwards variable elimination (for the selection of small
+sets of non-redundant variables) and selection based on the importance
+spectrum (somewhat similar to scree plots; for the selection of large,
+potentially highly-correlated variables). The main applications are in
+high-dimensional data (e.g., microarray data, and other genomics and
+proteomics applications).")
