The mixtures in this study were selected only for the purpose of demonstrating the application of the decision tree to diverse datasets containing mixtures of substances.
But complicating the application of the decision is the intense secrecy surrounding Hezbollah's military activities.
The application of the decision tree requires data on the RVs.
A real-world quality improvement problem is presented to illustrate the application of the decision approach.
