improve the BMA performance. To test the assumption made in section 2 and refine DT model ensembles obtained with BMA, we propose a new strategy aiming at discarding the DT models which use weak attributes. According to this strategy, first the BMA technique described in section 2 is used to collect DT models. Then posterior probabilities of using attributes in the ensemble of DT models are estimated. These estimates give us the posterior information on feature importance. Having obtained a range of

After improving the technique, they shifted to more sophisticated techniques in which the outcome was not so much close to the real world

In film, this is often the way in which the concept of love is explored: definition is established through the words, the looks, and the touches of couples who are engaged in love relationships that are identified as such by a narrative. However, such definitions are bound within the narrative
