Abstract
Processing within a computing environment is facilitated by obtaining, by a decision tree inference accelerator, a decision node result vector based on processing an input data vector through decision nodes of a decision tree. Further, the processing is facilitated by accelerating, by the decision tree inference accelerator, leaf node processing of the decision node result vector. The decision tree inference accelerator facilitates, based on predetermined path vectors through the decision tree to each leaf node of the plurality of leaf nodes, processing of the decision node result vector by the plurality of leaf nodes in parallel, and determining therefrom which leaf node of the plurality of leaf nodes is selected.
