Maximum margin decision surfaces for increased generalisation in evolutionary decision tree learning (Springer, 2011-04-27)Decision tree learning is one of the most widely used and practical methods for inductive inference. We present a novel method that increases the generalisation of genetically-induced classification trees, which employ ...
