Information fuzzy networks (original) (raw)

Information fuzzy networks (IFN) is a greedy machine learning algorithm for supervised learning.The data structure produced by the learning algorithm is also called Info Fuzzy Network.IFN construction is quite similar to decision trees' construction.However, IFN constructs a directed graph and not a tree.IFN also uses the conditional mutual information metric in order to choose features during the construction stage while decision trees usually use other metrics like entropy or gini.
