Classification Algorithm

A Classification Algorithm is an decisioning algorithm that can be implemented into a classification system (to solve a classification task).

• AKA: Class Decisioning Algorithm.
• Context:
  • It can range from being a Heuristic Classification Algorithm to being a Data-Driven Classification Algorithm (such as a supervised classification algorithm).
  • It can range from being a Binary Classification Algorithm to being a Multi-Class Classification Algorithm.
  • …
• Example(s):
  • a Classification Tree Learning Algorithm.
  • …
• Counter-Example(s):
  • a Ranking Algorithm.
  • a Point Estimation Algorithm.
  • a Range Estimation Algorithm.
• See: Estimation System.
