Abstract

The ability to restructure a decision tree efficiently enables a variety of approaches to decision tree induction that would otherwise be prohibitively expensive. This report describes two such approaches, one being incremental tree induction, and the other being non-incremental tree induction using a measure of tree quality instead of test quality. The algorithm ITI for incremental tree induction includes several significant advances from its predecessor ID5R, and the algorithm DMTI for employing a direct metric of tree quality is entirely new.
