ID3算法在选择分裂属性时偏向于选取属性取值较多的属性.针对该问题,引入属性重要性和属性取值数量2个参数对ID3算法的信息增益公式进行改进,从而提高取值数量少但较为关键的属性的重要性,使算法更好地反映实际决策情况,并根据凸函数的性质简化信息熵的计算,提高决策树的构造效率.通过实例介绍改进算法的具体应用方法,证明其性能相比原算法有所提高.%ID3 algorithm tends to choose the attributes of more values as the splitting attributes. Aiming at the problem, this paper introduces two parameters including attribute importance and number of attribute values to improve the existed formula of information gain of ID3 algorithm. This contributes to enhancing the importance of the critical attributes with fewer values and making the algorithm better reflect the actual decision-making situation. According to the properties of the convex function, it simplifies the calculating formula of information entropy to improve the efficiency of constructing a decision tree. A concrete example is given to describe the specific application of improved algorithm, and the result shows that it is more efficient than the original algorithm.
