Approximating Decision Trees with Multiway Branches
We consider the problem of constructing decision trees for entity identification from a given table. The input is a table containing information about a set of entities over a fi...

Partitioning Nominal Attributes in Decision Trees
To find the optimal branching of a nominal attribute at a node in an L-ary decision tree, one is often forced to search over all possible L-ary partitions for the one that yields t...

Generating AVTs Using GA for Learning Decision Tree Classifiers with Missing Data
Abstract. Attribute value taxonomies (AVTs) have been used to perform AVT-guided decision tree learning on partially or totally missing data. In many cases, user-supplied AVTs are ...

Random Ordinality Ensembles A Novel Ensemble Method for Multi-valued Categorical Data
Abstract. Data with multi-valued categorical attributes can cause major problems for decision trees. The high branching factor can lead to data fragmentation, where decisions have ...
