Linear machine 
• a linear machine is a program that itself 
classifies the instance 
Combination of two methods 
• Learning decision trees 
• Learning linear discriminate function

How train Linear Machine 
• Each instance is represented as a vector Y 
= 
W is a vector of adjustable coefficients 
c is the sufficient amount of correction is needed to cause 
linear machine become correct work 
CSE, DU 5
Correction of c 
CSE, DU 6
Variable Elimination 
• Develop a tree that does not evaluate 
unnecessary variable 
CSE, DU 7
CSE, DU 8
Conclusion 
• Proposed an linear machine learning 
algorithm to generate a tree in classification 
algorithm
