Question:
Please help me with creating a decision tree with the following information that I created as an example please. With explanation to help me understand for better learning please.
Decision Tree for "Choosing My Daily News"
Root Node: Start
Branch 1 (40% probability): Trusted News Sites
- Sub-branches: BBC, Reuters, The Guardian, etc. Branch 2 (20% probability): Topic-Specific Sites
- Sub-branches: MIT Technology Review, The Economist, etc. Branch 3 (15% probability): Algorithmic Recommendations
- Sub-branches: Google News, Apple News, etc. Branch 4 (10% probability): Social Media Feeds
- Sub-branches: Twitter, Facebook, etc. Branch 5 (15% probability): Random Stumbles
- Sub-branches: Unknown websites, friend recommendations, etc.
Decision Points:
- After browsing headlines:
- Read article (leads to "Read Articles" state)
- Watch video (leads to "Watch Videos" state)
- Switch sources (back to "Browse Headlines" state)
- After reading an article:
- Watch related video (leads to "Watch Videos" state)
- Return to headlines (leads to "Browse Headlines" state)
- After watching a video:
- Read related article (leads to "Read Articles" state)
- Return to headlines (leads to "Browse Headlines" state)
Random Stumbles:
- Occur at any point with a 15% probability
- Can lead to any source or topic, regardless of previous choices
Additional Considerations:
- Time constraints: Allocate more time to trusted sources and topic-specific sites.
- Current interests: Adjust probabilities to favor relevant topics.
- Information overload: Take breaks and revisit sources later.
- Variety: Consciously explore different sources and perspectives.
Visual representation:
- Use a decision tree diagramming tool or draw it by hand.
- Place the root node (Start) at the top.
- Draw branches for each news source with corresponding probabilities.
- Add decision points as nodes with arrows indicating possible transitions.
- Include "Random Stumbles" as a separate branch with random connections.
- Label nodes and branches clearly.
- Consider using colors or icons to visualize different source types.
