Conditional Trees:
Classification

Traditional decision tree induction, as epitomised by CART and ID3/C4.5, do not employ any test of statistical significance in deciding on which variables to choose when partitioning the data. Conditional trees have been introduced to address this by using a conditional distribution, measuring the association between the output and the input variables.
