How to build a decision tree model in IBM Db2

IBM Journey to AI blog

In this post, I will show how to develop, deploy, and use a decision tree model in a Db2 database. Using examples from the dataset, we’ll build a classification model with decision tree algorithm. Since I will create a decision tree model, I don’t need to deal with the large value and the missing values.

Explainable AI: Thinking Like a Machine

Towards AI

For example, which of these definitions fit a model like a decision tree which is explainable by design compared to a neural network using SHAP values to explain it’s predictions? In addition to that, these different ways of saying “I understand what my model is doing” pollute the waters of actual insightful understanding.
