Several approaches can be taken to predict case membership in the classes of a dependent variable. Classification and regression trees (CART) analysis has been cited repeatedly as a powerful ...

What is a Decision Tree? A decision tree is a visual and logical model used to guide decision-making or make predictions. It breaks down complex problems into a sequence of simpler choices. Each point ...

Previous algorithms for constructing regression tree models for longitudinal and multiresponse data have mostly followed the CART approach. Consequently, they inherit the same selection biases and ...
