- Data Understanding: Understand the dataset and its features.
- Data Preprocessing: Clean and prepare the data for training.
- Induce: Use divide and conquer to recursively split the training set.
- Tree Pruning: Trim the tree to avoid overfitting.
- Production Rule Extraction: Extract rules from the pruned tree.
- Predictive Model Application:
- Predict using the pruned tree.
- Predict using the extracted rule set.
- Explanation Tool Usage: The rule covering a new instance serves as an explanation for the prediction.
