• Versions with continuous attributes and with discrete (categorical) attributes • Basic tree learning algorithm leads to overfitting of the training data • Pruning with: – Additional test data (not used for training) – Statistical significance tests • Example of inductive learning
– Note: binary attributes are a special case of discrete attributes Continuous Attribute – Has real numbers as attribute values – Examples: temperature height or weight – Practically real values can be measured and represented using a finite number of digits – Continuous attributes are typically represented as floating-point
Continuous Attribute Has real numbers as attribute values Examples: temperature height or weight Practically real values can only be measured and represented using a finite number of digits Continuous attributes are typically represented as floating-point variables 11 Asymmetric Attributes
Example: {Income > 100K Online Banking=Yes} Age: =34 Rule consequent consists of a continuous variable characterized by their statistics mean median standard deviation etc Approach: Withhold the target attribute from the rest of the data Extract frequent itemsets from the rest of the attributes
Discrete and continuous inputs Simplest case: discrete inputs with small ranges (e g Boolean)?one branch for each value; attribute is “used up” (“complete split”) For continuous attribute test isXj> cfor somesplit pointc?two branches attribute may be split further in each subtree Also split large discrete ranges into two or more subsets
Preprocessing for Continuous-Valued Attributes Sort instances based on value of an attribute (e g temperature) Identify adjacent examples that differ in their target classification Generate a set of candidate thresholds midway between corresponding examples Use information gain to decide appropriate threshold
A continuous attribute can be divided in intervals of equal width (figure 1) or equal frequency (figure 2) Other methods exist to constitute the intervals for
