The output of RegressionResultAnalyzer is changed like this.
{noformat}
=======================================================
Summary
-------------------------------------------------------
Correlation coefficient                 :     0.4257
Mean absolute error                     :     0.9395
Root mean squared error                 :     1.2048
Predictable Instances                   :        717
Unpredictable Instances                 :          0
Total Regressed Instances               :        717
{noformat}
2 items, "Predictable Instances" and "Unpredictable Instances" are added.

For getting them, my patch contains the modification for classify() on DecisionForest.java.
With the trunk version of this method, we can get just a last tree, not all trees.

> On our RandomForest src, we uses "-1" for representing "Unpredictable",
> but for regression problem, there is a case which outputs "-1" for the correct result.
> For resolving this problem, we should change the unpredictable flag to "NaN" from "-1".
