I believe I've considerably cleaned it up. However, I don't usually edit Wikipedia pages and it could probably be brought up to speed Wikipedia-wise Weston.pace 22:47, 24 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I agree. I hope the original author decides to edit -- This reads like notes taken during a lecture. Fonny 13:18, 17 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

C4.5 is considered to be pretty important in the machine learning community (at least, I see it a lot in papers about text classification -- usually being beaten by support vector machines on particular datasets) so this page is noteworthy. However, it has terrible English. I'm not familiar enough with the software/algorithm(s) involved to edit it seriously. Whenning 05:23, 3 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Discussion of improvements

This article and the restatement of ID3 should be replaced with an explanation of the improvements offered by C4.5. From the article:

Choosing an appropriate attribute selection measure.
Handling training data with missing attribute values.
Handling attributes with differing costs.
Handling continuous attributes.

What does C4.5 do in each of these areas? Details about the implementation are useless! --Beefyt 21:55, 24 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
