- Automated Discretization: Discretization which sets the number of bins based on the range of a numeric value. Therefore, the user is not required to specify the number of bins. However, certain values may be 'lost' from the decision tree because of automatic binning, which is not the case with intelligent binning. See Binning, Discretization.
