To control the size of the tree, we need to control the number of regions. One approach to do this would be to split tree nodes only if the resultant decrease in the sum of squares error exceeds some threshold. For the described method, which among the following are true? ( a) It would, in general, help restrict the size of the trees ( b) It has the potential to affect the performance of the resultant regression/classification model ( c) It is computationally infeasible

Machine learning (ML) is a branch of artificial intelligence that leverages data to improve computer performance by giving machines the ability to "learn", or improve performance — based on the data.

There are four basic approaches to machine learning: supervised learning, unsupervised learning, semi-supervised learning and reinforcement learning.
