On Efficient Construction of Decision Trees from Large Databases
The main task in decision tree construction algorithms is to find the "best partition" of the set of objects. In this paper, we investigate the problem of optimal binary ...

Approximations by Smooth Transitions in Binary Space Partitions
This work proposes a simple approximation scheme for discrete data that leads to an infinitely smooth result without global optimization. It combines the flexibility of Binary Sp...

On Conditional Branches in Optimal Decision Trees
The decision tree is one of the most fundamental ing abstractions. A commonly used type of decision tree is the alphabetic binary tree, which uses (without loss of generality) &quo...

The offset tree for learning with partial labels
We present an algorithm, called the offset tree, for learning in situations where a loss associated with different decisions is not known, but was randomly probed. The algorithm i...

Approximate Discrete Probability Distribution Representation Using a Multi-Resolution Binary Tree
Computing and storing probabilities is a hard problem as soon as one has to deal with complex distributions over multiples random variables. The problem of efficient representati...
