Abstract: We present some problems with geometric characterizations that arise naturally in practical applications of machine learning. Our motivation comes from a well known machine learning problem, the problem of computing decision trees. Typically one is given a dataset of positive and negative points, and has to compute a decision tree that fits it. The points are in a low dimensional space, and the data are collected experimentally. In most practical solutions heuristic algorithms are used. To... (Update)
