2. 3-2 Overview ¨ What is a Decision Tree ¨ ID3 ¨ REP ¨ IREP ¨ RIPPER ¨ Application

3. 3-3 What is Decision Tree

4. 3-4 What is Decision Tree u Select best attribute that classifies examples u Top Down Start with concept that represents all u Greedy Algorithm Select attribute that classifies maximum examples u Does not backtrack u ID3

5. 3-5 ID3 Algorithm u ID3(Examples, Target_attribute, Attributes) u Create a Root node for the tree u If Examples all positive? Return Single Node Tree Root, with label = + u If Examples all negative? Return Single node Tree Root, with label = - u If Attributes is empty Return single-node tree Root, label = most common value of Target_attribute in Examples

6. 3-6 ID3 Algorithm u Otherwise A  Best_Attribute (Attributes, Examples) Root  A v For each value v i of A –Add a new tree branch –Examples_svi is a subset of Examples for vi –If Examples_svi is empty? –Add leaf node label = most common value of Target_attribute –Add a new sub tree: ID3(Examples_svi, Target_attribute, Attributes – {A})

7. 3-7 Selecting Best Attribute u New property of Attribute: Information Gain u Information Gain: Measures how well a given attribute separates the training examples according to their target classification

8. 3-8 Information Gain {E1+, E2+, E3-, E4-} {E1+, E2+} {E3-, E4-} att1 {E1+, E2+, E3-, E4-} {E1+, E3-} {E2+, E4-} att2 att1 = 1 att2 = 0.5

9. 3-9 Tree Pruning ¨ Overfit and Simplify ¨ Simplify Tree ¨ In most cases it improves accuracy

10. 3-10 REP ¨ Reduced Error Pruning ¨ Deletes Single Conditions or Single Rules ¨ Improves on Noisy Data ¨ O(n 4 ) on large data sets

11. 3-11 IREP ¨ Incremental Reduced Error Pruning ¨ Produces one rule at a time and eliminates all examples covered by that rule ¨ Stops when no positive examples or pruning produces unacceptable error

12. 3-12 IREP Algorithm PROCEDURE IREP(Pos, Neg) BEGIN Ruleset := 0 WHILE Pos != 0 DO /* Grow and Prune a New Rule */ split (Pos, Neg) into (GrowPos, GrowNeg) Rule := GrowRule( GrowPos, GrowNeg ) Rule := PruneRule( Rule, PrunePos, PruneNeg )

13. 3-13 IREP Algorithm IF error rate of Rule on ( PrunePos, PruneNeg ) exceeds 50% THEN RETURN Ruleset ELSE Add Rule to Ruleset Remove examples covered by Rule from ( Pos, Neg ) ENDIF ENDWHILE RETURN Ruleset END

14. 3-14 RIPPER ¨ Repeated Grow and Simplify produces quite different results than REP ¨ Repeatedly prune the rule set to minimize the error ¨ Repeated Incremental Pruning to Produce Error Reduction (RIPPER)

15. 3-15 RIPPER Algorithm PROCEDURE RIPPERk (Pos, Neg) BEGIN Ruleset : = IREP(Pos, Neg) REPEAT k TIMES Ruleset := Optimize(Ruleset, Pos, Neg) UncovPos : = Pos \ {data covered by Ruleset } UncovNeg : = Neg \ {data covered by Ruleset } Ruleset : = Ruleset  IREP(UncovPos, UncovNeg) ENDREPEAT END

16. 3-16 Optimization Function FUNCTION Optimize (Ruleset, Pos, Neg) BEGIN FOR each rule r  Ruleset do split ( Pos, Neg) into (GrowPos, GrowNeg) and (PrunePos, PruneNeg) /* Compute Replacement for r */ r’ : = GrowRule (GrowPos, GrowNet) r’ : = PruneRule ( r’, PrunePos, PruneNeg ) guided by error of Ruleset \ {c}  {c’}

17. 3-17 Optimization Function /* Compute Replacement for r */ r’’ : = GrowRule (GrowPos, GrowNet) r’’ : = PruneRule ( r’, PrunePos, PruneNeg ) guided by error of Ruleset \ {c}  {c’’} Replace c in Ruleset with best of c, c’, c’’ guided by description length of Compress(Ruleset\{c}  {x}) ENDFOR RETURN Ruleset END
