In aspects of the present disclosure, a circuit interrupter includes a housing, a conductive path, a switch which selectively interrupts the conductive path, sensor(s), memory, and a controller within the housing. The sensor(s) measure electrical characteristic(s) of the conductive path. The memory stores an arc detection program that implements a machine learning model and includes a field-updatable program portion and a non-field-updatable program portion, where the field-updatable program portion includes program parameters used by the non-field-updatable program portion to decide between presence or absence of an arc fault. The controller executes the arc detection program to compute input data for the machine learning model based on the sensor measurements, decide between presence of an arc event or absence of an arc event based on the input data, and cause the switch to interrupt the conductive path when the decision indicates presence of an arc event.

An apparatus comprising:
A method for a decision tree configured to indicate presence or absence of an arc event, the decision tree comprising field-updatable decision tree node parameters and non-field-updatable decision tree node operations, the method comprising:
A non-transitory processor-readable medium storing a decision tree and instructions, the decision tree configured to indicate presence or absence of an arc event, the decision tree comprising field-updatable decision tree node parameters and non-field-updatable decision tree node operations, wherein the instructions, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to perform the steps of:
