A decision tree is a machine learning technique that can be used for binary classification or multi-class classification. A multi-class classification problem is one where the goal is to predict the ...

Dr. James McCaffrey of Microsoft Research says decision trees are useful for relatively small datasets and when the trained model must be easily interpretable, but often don't work well with large ...

What is a Decision Tree? A decision tree is a visual and logical model used to guide decision-making or make predictions. It breaks down complex problems into a sequence of simpler choices. Each point ...

When considering a decision tree for the purpose of classification, accuracy is usually the sole performance measure used in the construction process. In this paper, we introduce the idea of combining ...

Objective: To determine whether classification tree techniques used on survey data collected at enrollment from older adults in a Medicare HMO could predict the likelihood of an individual being in a ...
