The Lumberjack Algorithm for Learning Linked Decision Forests
While the decision tree is an effective representation that has been used in many domains, a tree can often encode a concept inefficiently. This happens when the tree has to repres...

Quantization of Continuous Input Variables for Binary Classification
Quantization of continuous variables is important in data analysis, especially for some model classes such as Bayesian networks and decision trees, which use discrete variables. Of...

Classification with Belief Decision Trees
Abstract. Decision trees are considered as an efficient technique to express classification knowledge and to use it. However, their most standard algorithms do not deal with uncert...

Cost-Sensitive Decision Tree Learning for Forensic Classification
Abstract. In some learning settings, the cost of acquiring features for classification must be paid up front, before the classifier is evaluated. In this paper, we introduce the fo...

Learning Monotone Decision Trees in Polynomial Time
We give an algorithm that learns any monotone Boolean function f : {-1, 1}n {-1, 1} to any constant accuracy, under the uniform distribution, in time polynomial in n and in the de...

Learning with Local Drift Detection
Abstract. Most of the work in Machine Learning assume that examples are generated at random according to some stationary probability distribution. In this work we study the problem...

H.263 to H.264 Transconding using Data Mining
1 In this paper, we propose the use of data mining algorithms to create a macroblock partition mode decision algorithm for inter-frame prediction, to be used as part of a high-effi...

Linear Decision Trees: Volume Estimates and Topological Bounds
Abstract. We describe two methods for estimating the size and depth of decision trees where a linear test is performed at each node. Both methods are applied to the question of dec...

Global Data Analysis and the Fragmentation Problem in Decision Tree Induction
We investigate an inherent limitation of top-down decision tree induction in which the continuous partitioning of the instance space progressively lessens the statistical support o...
