# Decision Tree # Decision Tree
A ruby library which implements ID3 (information gain) algorithm for decision tree learning. Currently, continuous and discrete datasets can be learned.

- Discrete model assumes unique labels & can be graphed and converted into a png for visual analysis - Discrete model assumes unique labels & can be graphed and converted into a png for visual analysis
- Continuous looks at all possible values for a variable and iteratively chooses the best threshold between all possible assignments. This results in a binary tree which is partitioned by the threshold at every step. (e.g. temperate > 20C) - Continuous looks at all possible values for a variable and iteratively chooses the best threshold between all possible assignments.
