Kernel of Partition Paths: A Unified Representation for Tree Ensembles
A new research paper introduces the Kernel of Partition Paths (KPP), a novel unified representation for tree ensembles in machine learning. KPP indexes the feature map by forest nodes, employing a path metric to create a squared-Euclidean embedding. This framework unifies prediction, exact additive attribution, deterministic Lipschitz robust radius, and uniform Rademacher risk bounds for regression and classification tasks. AI
