Abstract

A method for representing decision trees that avoids the common problem of congestion and overlapping of the nodes in the tree. This problem has traditionally limited the number of nodes and uncertainties that can be represented using decision trees. The approach provides a method and formulation for plotting the coordinates of the decision tree in a way that avoids the problem of congestion of the nodes by drawing the tree in reverse chronological order.
