Abstract
This special issue is devoted to invited editorials and technical papers on knowledge acquisition. In the past, special issues have been devoted to recognized subfields of machine learning, where a subfield might be characterized by a particular method of machine learning, such as genetic algorithms. The relationship between machine learning and knowledge acquisition is not so clearcut as the field-subfield one. Neither are the methods of knowledge acquisition so homogeneous and easily characterized as for genetic algorithms.

Induction of Decision Trees

J. R. Quinlan
- 25 Mar 1986 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, an approach to synthesizing decision trees that has been used in a variety of systems, and it describes one such system, ID3, in detail, is described, and a reported shortcoming of the basic algorithm is discussed.
