Abstract

Decision tree techniques have been widely used to build classification models as such models closely resemble human reasoning and are easy to understand. This paper describes basic decision tree issues and current research points. Of course, a single article cannot be a complete review of all algorithms (also known induction classification trees), yet we hope that the references cited will cover the major theoretical issues, guiding the researcher in interesting research directions and suggesting possible bias combinations that have yet to be explored.
