Title
Comparison of decision trees with Rényi and Tsallis entropy applied for imbalanced churn dataset
Abstract
Two algorithms for building classification trees, based on Tsallis and Rényi entropy, are proposed and applied to customer churn problem. The dataset for modeling represents highly unbalanced proportion of two classes, which is often found in real world applications, and may cause negative effects on classification performance of the algorithms. The quality measures for obtained trees are compared for different values of α parameter.
