Train Decision Tree in Python

Train Decision Tree in Python. Algorithm can be used in classification and regression tasks. Please make sure that there are no missing values in the training data and all values are numeric.

Please check Advanced options. There are several criterions available to measure split quality. What is more, you can control the tree structure by selecting minimum number of samples for internal node split and minimum samples in the leaf. The max depth parameter controls the depth of the tree, if it is not set then tree is trained till all leaves are pure or there are minimum samples in the internal node.

Decision Tree model can be persisted to hard disk in pickle format.
