We present DL8, an exact algorithm for finding a decision tree that optimizes a ranking function under size, depth, accuracy and leaf constraints. Because the discovery of optimal...
Privacy preserving data mining has been investigated extensively. The previous works mainly fall into two categories, perturbation and randomization based approaches and secure mu...

Abstract. Approaches to data mining proposed so far are mainly symbolic decision trees and numerical feedforward neural networks methods. While decision trees give, in many cases, ...
—Some data mining problems require predictive models to be not only accurate but also comprehensible. Comprehensibility enables human inspection and understanding of the model, m...
