Hi netters, I want to learn a decision tree from a series of instances (learning data). The packages tree or rpart can do this quite well, but the scoring functions (splitting criteria) are fixed in these packages, like gini or something. However, I'm going to use another scoring function.

Hi netters. Assume Y = {Y1,.Yn} and X = {X1..Xm}, where Yi and Xi are random variables that can take on discrete values from V={0,1,2}. Each Yi in Y has some (0-k) parent variables in X, which means given the values of the parent variables (Xi0Xik) the values of Yi is set. Yi =
