Rational decision making requires full knowledge of the utility function of the person affected by the decisions. However, in many cases, the task of acquiring such knowledge is n...
This paper proposes a novel decision tree for a data set with time-series attributes. Our time-series tree has a value (i.e. a time sequence) of a time-series attribute in its int...
The purpose of this paper is to show that a well known machine learning technique based on Decision Trees can be effectively used to select the best approach (in terms of efficien...
We present new results on the well-studied problem of learning DNF expressions. We prove that an algorithm due to Kushilevitz and Mansour [13] can be used to weakly learn DNF form...

Weintroduce a parallel approach, "DT-SELECT," for selecting features used by inductive learning algorithms to predict protein secondary structure. DT-SELECTis able to ra...
