我创建了自己的函数来从 sklearn 创建的决策树中提取规则：
import pandas as pd
import numpy as np
from sklearn.tree import DecisionTreeClassifier
# dummy data:
df = pd.DataFrame({'col1':[0,1,2,3],'col2':[3,4,5,6],'dv':[0,1,0,1]})
# create decision tree
dt = DecisionTreeClassifier(max_depth=5, min_samples_leaf=1)
dt.fit(df.ix[:,:2], df.dv)
此函数首先从节点（子数组中的 -1 标识）开始，然后递归查找父节点。我称之为节点的“血统”。在此过程中，我获取了创建 if/then/else SAS 逻辑所需的值：
def get_lineage(tree, feature_names):
left = tree.tree_.children_left
right = tree.tree_.children_right
threshold = tree.tree_.threshold
features = [feature_names[i] for i in tree.tree_.feature]
# get ids of child nodes
idx = np.argwhere(left == -1)[:,0]
def recurse(left, right, child, lineage=None):
if lineage is None:
lineage = [child]
if child in left:
parent = np.where(left == child)[0].item()
split = 'l'
else:
parent = np.where(right == child)[0].item()
split = 'r'
lineage.append((parent, split, threshold[parent], features[parent]))
if parent == 0:
lineage.reverse()
return lineage
else:
return recurse(left, right, parent, lineage)
for child in idx:
for node in recurse(left, right, child):
print node
下面的元组集包含创建 SAS if/then/else 语句所需的一切。我不喜欢在 SAS 中使用 do 块，这就是我创建描述节点整个路径的逻辑的原因。元组后面的单个整数是路径中终端节点的 ID。所有前面的元组组合起来创建该节点。
