Abstract
A computer-implemented method and system defines a uniform decision-tree formation to store decision-making processes. Each node in a decision tree represents a factor decision. All nodes of a decision tree are interlinked in a hierarchical structure based on a decision-making process. Any decision tree of the present invention can serve as a sub-tree of another decision tree. Users can convert their decision-making processes into decision trees and make collaborative decisions through network.
Claims18
A computer-based system and method of defining a uniform formation using a distributed decision-tree structure to convert and store people's decision-making processes, comprising of:
- a) defining all nodes of decision trees using an uniform formation;
- b) linking said nodes to form a decision tree;
- c) linking two nodes by storage addresses, wherein one is the parent node and the another one is the child node;
- d) mapping output values of a node to input values of its parent node;
- e) storing said plurality of nodes in a readable storage medium by computer devices;
- f) linking another decision tree to the current decision tree as a sub-tree;
- g) storing said sub-tree in either the same or a different data storage medium;
- h) performing the same decision processing steps in said each node.
