Algorithms for constructing decision trees are among the most well known and widely used of all machine learning methods. Among decision tree algorithms, J. Ross Quinlan's ID3 a...
Chapter 18 Committees of decision trees
Many intelligent systems are designed to sift through a mass of evidence and arrive at a decision. Certain pieces of evidence may be given more weight than others, and this may ...
OC1: randomized induction of oblique decision trees
This paper introduces OC1, a new algorithm for generating multivariate decision trees. Multivariate trees classify examples by testing linear combinations of the features at eac...
Best-first Decision Tree Learning
Decision trees are potentially powerful predictors and explicitly represent the structure of a dataset. Standard decision tree learners such as C4.5 expand nodes in depth-first ...
A Communication-Efficient Parallel Algorithm for Decision Tree
Decision tree (and its extensions such as Gradient Boosting Decision Trees and Random Forest) is a widely used machine learning algorithm, due to its practical effectiveness and...
