Simple Test Strategies for Cost-Sensitive Decision Trees
We study cost-sensitive learning of decision trees that incorporate both test costs and misclassification costs. In particular, we first propose a lazy decision tree learning that ...

Hybrid Cost-Sensitive Decision Tree
Cost-sensitive decision tree and cost-sensitive naïve Bayes are both new cost-sensitive learning models proposed recently to minimize the total cost of test and misclassifications...

Cost-Sensitive Test Strategies
In medical diagnosis doctors must often determine what medical tests (e.g., X-ray, blood tests) should be ordered for a patient to minimize the total cost of medical tests and mis...

Cost-Sensitive Reordering of Navigational Primitives
We present a method to evaluate path queries based on the novel concept of partial path instances. Our method (1) maximizes performance by means of sequential scans or asynchronou...

Decision trees with minimal costs
We propose a simple, novel and yet effective method for building and testing decision trees that minimizes the sum of the misclassification and test costs. More specifically, we f...
