摘要: This note introduces a new attribute selection measure for ID3-like inductive algorithms. is based on distance between partitions such that the selected in node induces partition which closest to correct of subset training examples corresponding this node. The relationship with Quinlan's information gain also established. It formally proved our not biased towards attributes large numbers values. Experimental studies confirm previously reported results showing predictive accuracy induced decision trees sensitive goodness measure. However, produces smaller than ratio Quinlan, especially case data whose have significantly different
