31// CostComplexityPruneTool - a class to prune a decision tree using the Cost Complexity method //
32// (see "Classification and Regression Trees" by Leo Breiman et al) //
33// //
34// Some definitions: //
35// //
36// T_max - the initial, usually highly overtrained tree, that is to be pruned back //
37// R(T) - quality index (Gini, misclassification rate, or other) of a tree T //
38// ~T - set of terminal nodes in T //
39// T' - the pruned subtree of T_max that has the best quality index R(T') //
40// alpha - the prune strength parameter in Cost Complexity pruning (R_alpha(T) = R(T) + alpha*|~T|) //
41// //
42// There are two running modes in CostComplexityPruneTool: (i) one may select a prune strength and prune //
43// the tree T_max until the criterion //
44// R(T) - R(t) //
45// alpha < ---------- //
46// |~T_t| - 1 //
47// //
48// is true for all nodes t in T, or (ii) the algorithm finds the sequence of critical points //
49// alpha_k < alpha_k+1 ... < alpha_K such that T_K = root(T_max) and then selects the optimally-pruned //
50// subtree, defined to be the subtree with the best quality index for the validation sample. //
