More Information
Summary:A decision tree model is generated from sample data. A visualization system may automatically prune the decision tree model based on characteristics of nodes or branches in the decision tree or based on artifacts associated with model generation. For example, only nodes or questions in the decision tree receiving a largest amount of the sample data may be displayed in the decision tree. The nodes also may be displayed in a manner to more readily identify associated fields or metrics. For example, the nodes may be displayed in different colors and the colors may be associated with different node questions or answers.
