Improving Stability of Decision Trees
Decision-tree algorithms are known to be unstable: small variations in the training set can result in different trees and different predictions for the same validation examples. B...

Decision Diagrams in Machine Learning: An Empirical Study on Real-Life Credit-Risk Data
Decision trees are a widely used knowledge representation in machine learning. However, one of their main drawbacks is the inherent replication of isomorphic subtrees, as a result...

Extraction of Symbolic Rules from Artificial Neural Networks
Although backpropagation ANNs generally predict better than decision trees do for pattern classification problems, they are often regarded as black boxes, i.e., their predictions c...
