Decision Tree

A tree-structured model that makes predictions by recursively splitting data based on feature thresholds.

In more detail

Decision trees are interpretable, handle non-linear relationships, and work with categorical data. Each node splits on a feature, creating a tree of decisions. Prone to overfitting but effective in ensembles.

Examples

  • Binary classification trees
  • Multi-class decision trees
  • Regression trees
