Abstract

Decision tree pre-pruning is an effective method to solve the over-fitting problem in decision tree learning process. However, it is difficult to estimate the exact time to stop the growing process of a decision tree, which limits the developments and applications of this method. In this paper, the growing of a decision tree is controlled by the uncertainty of a decision table, and a data-driven learning algorithm for decision tree pre-pruning is developed.
