A Hybrid Tsallis-Polarization Impurity Measure for Decision Trees: Theoretical Foundations and Empirical Evaluation

Edouard Lansiaux, Idriss Jairi, Hayfa Zgaya-Biau

We introduce the Integrated Tsallis Combination (ITC), a hybrid impurity measure for decision tree learning that combines normalized Tsallis entropy with an exponential polarizatio…
