  • Abstract
    This paper is concerned with methods of construction of fuzzy decision trees and the choice of such a method the user has to make. The main differences between methods lies in the choice of the measure of discrimination that enables the ranking of attributes during the construction step. In this paper, a formal study of the main differences between measures is done. The aim is to highlight the major properties of the fuzzy decision trees constructed by a particular method.
