================================================================================= In machine learning, "binary trees" typically refer to decision trees with binary splits at each node. Decision trees are a fundamental machine learning algorithm used for both classification and regression tasks. A decision tree is a hierarchical structure that makes a sequence of binary decisions to classify or predict a target variable. Each node in the tree represents a decision point, and the branches represent the possible outcomes of that decision. Binary decision trees are those where each decision at a node results in two possible branches, which correspond to binary choices (e.g., yes/no, true/false, 0/1). Here's a simple example: In this binary decision tree, we start at the root node and make binary decisions based on the weather condition. If the weather is sunny (Yes), we "Play," and if it's not sunny (No), we "Stay Home." Binary decision trees are used in various machine learning algorithms, including:
Binary decision trees are attractive in machine learning because they are easy to understand, interpret, and visualize. However, they can also be prone to overfitting, especially when the trees become deep and complex. To mitigate this issue, techniques like pruning and limiting the tree's depth are often used. ============ Binary trees. Code: ============================================
