Automatic Design of Decision-Tree Induction Algorithms

by Rodrigo C Barros, Andre C P L F De Carvalho, Alex Freitas, et al.

Presents a detailed study of the major design components that constitute a top-down decision-tree induction algorithm, including aspects such as split criteria, stopping criteria, pruning and the approaches for dealing with missing values. Whereas the strategy still employed nowadays is to use a 'generic' decision-tree induction algorithm regardless of the data, the authors argue on the benefits that a bias-fitting strategy could bring to decision-tree...
