Growing Simpler Decision Trees to Facilitate Knowledge Discovery
Explore this paper's citation graph
Summary
A new algorithm, SET-GEN, is introduced that improves the comprehensibility of decision trees grown by standard C4.5 without reducing accuracy by using genetic search to select the set of input features C 4.5 is allowed to use to build its tree.
