Lookahead-based algorithms for anytime induction of decision trees
The majority of the existing algorithms for learning decision trees are greedy--a tree is induced top-down, making locally optimal decisions at each node. In most cases, however, ...

Anytime Induction of Decision Trees: An Iterative Improvement Approach
Most existing decision tree inducers are very fast due to their greedy approach. In many real-life applications, however, we are willing to allocate more time to get better decisi...
