The Block Tree is a recently proposed data structure representing a sequence T of length n in space bounded by the number of phrases z of the Lempel-Ziv parsing of T. It uses O(z log(n/z)) space and supports access to ...

Inductive Decision Trees (DT) are mechanisms based on the symbolic paradigm of machine learning which main characteristics are easy interpretability and low computational cost. Though they are widely used, the DTs can ...
