Abstract: This paper proposes a new method to qualify the result given
by a decision tree when it is used as a decision aid system. When the
data are numerical, we compute the distance of a case from the decision
surface. This distance measures the sensitivity of the result to a change
in the input data. With a di#erent distance it is also possible to measure
the sensitivity of the result to small changes in the tree. The distance
from the decision surface can also be combined to the error rate in... (Update)
