Question

Remember the dataset of alligators which was about the length and weight of several aligators in Florida. The variable X is the length of aligator and the Y variable is the weight of them. A researcher decided to use decision tree and designed two steps: X<4, X>4. What is the name of this method of splitting?A. Multi-way splitting.B. Entropy classification.C. Binary splitting.D. Gini index.

Answer 1

A. multi-way split.

Explanation:

Multi way split consists of internal at decision tree branches. Gini index measures probability of impurity in the random variables chosen. Entropy is measure of uncertainty in the sample selected. Binary splitting is used to speed up numerical evaluation.
