Optimal or Greedy Decision Trees? Revisiting their Objectives, Tuning, and Performance

arXiv:2409. 12788v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Recently there has been a surge of interest in optimal decision tree (ODT) methods that globally optimize accuracy directly, in contrast to traditional approaches that locally optimize an impurity or information metric.

Fixed Budget is No Harder Than Fixed Confidence in Best-Arm Identification up to Logarithmic Factors

arXiv:2602. 03972v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: The best-arm identification (BAI) problem is one of the most fundamental problems in interactive machine learning, which has two flavors: the fixed-budget setting (FB) and the fixed-confidence setting (FC).
