Description Usage Arguments Details Value Author(s) References See Also Examples
This function is based on the tree-based framework provided by the
rpart
package (Therneau et. al. 2010). It basically, integrates
the tree growth and tree post-pruning in a single function call. The
post-pruning phase is essentially the 1-SE rule described in the CART
book (Breiman et. al. 1984).

The x-SE rule for tree post-pruning is based on the cross-validation estimates of the error of the sub-trees of the initially grown tree, together with the standard errors of these estimates. These values are used to select the final tree model. Namely, the selected tree is the smallest tree with estimated error less than the B+x*SE, where B is the lowest estimate of error and SE is the standard error of this B estimate.
