While much emphasis is placed on improving the accuracy of these models, their comprehensibility to analysts and end-users is an often overlooked aspect. This thesis addresses this gap by presenting an empirical study that investigates the interpretability of alternative representation format, with a specific focus on decision trees and decision tables. In our research, decision trees are identified as challenging to read and understand, prompting the exploration of a solution. Motivated by the objective of enhancing model interpretability, we propose the development of a Python program designed to convert complex decision trees into more accessible decision tables. Decision tables, known for their clarity and ease of interpretation, emerge as a favorable alternative. |
