Classiication trees based on exhaustive search algorithms tend to be biased towards selecting variables that aaord more splits. As a result, such trees should be interpreted with caution. This article presents an algorithm called QUEST that has negligible bias. Its split selection strategy shares similarities with the FACT method, but it yields binary splits and the nal tree can be selected by ...

Classification trees based on exhaustive search algorithms tend to be biased towards selecting variables that afford more splits. As a result, such trees should be interpreted with caution. This article presents an algorithm called QUEST that has negligible bias. Its split selection strategy shares similarities with the FACT method, but it yields binary splits and the final tree can be selected...

This paper presents QUEST++ , an open source tool for quality estimation which can predict quality for texts at word, sentence and document level. It also provides pipelined processing, whereby predictions made at a lower level (e.g. for words) can be used as input to build models for predictions at a higher level (e.g. sentences). QUEST++ allows the extraction of a variety of features, and pro...

For the sustainable use of groundwater, this study analyzed groundwater productivity-potential using a decision-tree approach in a geographic information system (GIS) in Boryeong and Pohang cities, Korea. The model was based on the relationship between groundwater-productivity data, including specific capacity (SPC), and its related hydrogeological factors. SPC data which is measured and calcul...

The recent advances in the smart sensor technology and proliferation of their availability in conjunction with ubiquitous communication platforms have tremendously enabled researchers in surveillance and situational understanding area to propose and build cutting edge Monitoring and Surveillance applications with high quality and fidelity. The purpose of this special issue is to provide details...

The software development project Quest provides tools to build correct software, especially for embedded systems. It connects the CASE-tool AutoFocus to the formal development tool VSE II, and the model checker SMV. To increase quality of non-formally developed programs a test environment is realized, containing a connection to the test-case classiication tool CTE. Proving the correctness of th...
