arXiv:2608.29262v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Decision trees are attractive for tabular prediction tasks because each prediction follows an interpretable sequence of feature-threshold tests. Unde...
The paper introduces ICOMT, a framework for interpretable clustering using optimal multi-way decision trees. It proposes a new discretization technique based on one-dimensional K‑means, formulates a binary linear optimization problem to ensure tree optimality, and demonstrates superior clustering accuracy and shallow tree structures on four public datasets.
arXiv:2609.24528v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Random forests (RFs) predict well but are opaque, whereas single decision trees are interpretable but unstable. Artificial representative trees (ARTs...
The paper introduces Interpretable Network-assisted Random Forest+ (RF+), a family of flexible models that combine the predictive power of random forests with network information. It offers intrinsic interpretability by providing global and local feature importance measures, as well as sample influence metrics, allowing researchers to assess both feature effects and the contribution of network neighbors. The authors claim that RF+ achieves competitive prediction accuracy while remaining transparent, making it suitable for high-impact problems where understanding model decisions is crucial.
