This project aims to provide a pure OCaml implementation of C4.5
(Wikipedia). This algorithm is
used to generate a decision tree from a dataset and a criteria set, and is
usually found in machine learning.

The algorithm description can be found in eg. "Efficient C4.5" by S. Ruggieri
in IEEE transactions on knowledge and data engineering, vol. 14, no. 2,
march/april 2002.

Compiling

If you do not have opam, install it.

If you do not have obuild, install
it: opam install obuild.

Then, compile and install (locally to your user) the project with

    obuild configure
    obuild build
    obuild install

Documentation

You can generate the project's documentation using ocamldoc.

If, for some reason, you do not want to generate the documentation, you can use
the precompiled, but not necessarily up-to-date online version
here.
