Tree-Structured Regression Model Using a Projection Pursuit Approach

In this paper, a new tree-structured regression model—the projection pursuit regression tree—is proposed. It combines the projection pursuit classification tree with the projection pursuit regression. The main advantage of the projection pursuit regression tree is exploring the independent variable...
