Evaluating the Effectiveness of Ensembles of Decision Trees
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper presents an evaluation of an ensemble–based system that participated in the English and Spanish lexical sample tasks of SENSEVAL-2. The system combines decision trees of unigrams, bigrams, and co–occurrences into a single classifier. The analysis is extended to include the SENSEVAL-1 data.

متن کاملPost-Learning Optimization of Tree Ensembles
Learning to Rank (LtR) is the machine learning method of choice for producing highly effective ranking functions. However, efficiency and effectiveness are two competing forces and trading off effectiveness for meeting efficiency constraints typical of production systems is one of the most urgent issues. This extended abstract shortly summarizes the work in [4] proposing CLEaVER, a new framewor...
متن کاملEnsembles of (α)-Trees for Imbalanced Classification Problems
This paper introduces two kinds of decision tree ensembles for imbalanced classification problems, extensively utilizing properties of α-divergence. First, a novel splitting criterion based on α-divergence is shown to generalize several wellknown splitting criteria such as those used in C4.5 and CART. When the α-divergence splitting criterion is applied to imbalanced data, one can obtain decisi...
متن کاملOn optimal settings of classification tree ensembles for medical decision support
Pattern recognition and machine learning methods provide an attractive approach for building decision support systems. Classification trees are frequently used algorithms for such tasks owing to their intuitive structure and effectiveness. It has been shown that for complex medical data, combining a number of base classifiers improves their overall accuracy. Classification tree ensembles have a...
متن کاملEnsembles of Multi-Objective Decision Trees
Ensemble methods are able to improve the predictive performance of many base classifiers. Up till now, they have been applied to classifiers that predict a single target attribute. Given the non-trivial interactions that may occur among the different targets in multi-objective prediction tasks, it is unclear whether ensemble methods also improve the performance in this setting. In this paper, w...
