Abstract

For problems over arbitrary information system we study the relationships among the complexity of a problem description, the minimal complexity of a decision tree solving this problem deterministically, and the minimal complexity of a decision tree solving this problem nondeterministically. We consider the local approach to investigation of decision trees where only attributes from a problem description are used for construction of decision trees solving this problem.
