Quinlan Message-ID: <628@bohra.cpg.oz> Date: 2 Oct 90 22:32:31 GMT Organization: Computer Power Group, Melb, Australia Lines: 7 Can anyone direct me to references on an algorithm known as C4 (I think it's predecessor was called ID3), used to build decision trees in knowledge aquisition systems? It's author is J.R. Quinlan, and I think it dates to about 1986. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance, Jane. D
