When a Decision Tree Learner Has Plenty of Time
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...

Forgetting and Conflict Resolving in Disjunctive Logic Programming
We establish a declarative theory of forgetting for disjunctive logic programs. The suitability of this theory is justified by a number of desirable properties. In particular, one...
