Learning Rules for Large-Vocabulary Word Sense Disambiguation: A Comparison of Various Classifiers
In this article we compare the performance of various machine learning algorithms on the task of constructing word-sense disambiguation rules from data. The distinguishing characte...

Abduction in Classification Tasks
The aim of this paper is to show how abduction can be used in classification tasks when we deal with incomplete data. Some classifiers, even if based on decision tree induction lik...

LEGAL-tree: a lexicographic multi-objective genetic algorithm for decision tree induction
Decision trees are widely disseminated as an effective solution for classification tasks. Decision tree induction algorithms have some limitations though, due to the typical strat...

Decision tree and instance-based learning for label ranking
The label ranking problem consists of learning a model that maps instances to total orders over a finite set of predefined labels. This paper introduces new methods for label ra...

Minimising Decision Tree Size as Combinatorial Optimisation
Decision tree induction techniques attempt to find small trees that fit a training set of data. This preference for smaller trees, which provides a learning bias, is often justifie...

Generalized skewing for functions with continuous and nominal attributes
This paper extends previous work on skewing, an approach to problematic functions in decision tree induction. The previous algorithms were applicable only to functions of binary v...
