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

A supervised learning algorithm, decision trees can also be used for either classification problems or regression problems. It’s called a “tree” because it possesses a hierarchical structure.

Missing values may be easier to manage with decision trees than they are with other classification methods. 33 The tree-building algorithm in the Salford System CART software uses a method of ...

The visual data mining process, seen in the first part of this two-part article, revealed patterns in four dimensions between cumulative gas well production and independent variables ...

This article considers a measure of variable importance frequently used in variable-selection methods based on decision trees and tree-based ensemble models. These models include CART, random forests, ...

The proposed analysis focuses on key performance metrics to assess classification effectiveness, including accuracy, precision, recall, F1-score, and Area Under the Curve (AUC). The Decision Tree ...
