Evolutionary algorithms have emerged as a robust alternative to traditional greedy approaches for decision tree induction. By mimicking the natural selection process, these algorithms iterate over a ...

Junior faculty are often told to protect their time, but nobody provides instructions for how to do so. As an assistant professor at a public university, I have struggled to balance my course load, my ...

New research suggests that determining evolutionary trees of organisms by comparing anatomy rather than gene sequences is misleading. The study shows that we often need to overturn centuries of ...

The Data Science Lab Binary Classification Using a scikit Decision Tree Dr. James McCaffrey of Microsoft Research says decision trees are useful for relatively small datasets and when the trained ...

New research led by scientists at the Milner Centre for Evolution at the University of Bath suggests that determining evolutionary trees of organisms by comparing anatomy rather than gene sequences is ...
