Robust Decision Tree
A Robust Decision Tree is a decision tree variant trained with modified splitting criteria or training procedures designed to reduce sensitivity to outliers, label noise, and adversarial perturbations. Rather than minimizing standard impurity measures that are strongly affected by extreme values, robust variants use statistically robust analogues or regularization to produce splits that generalize under noisy or corrupted data conditions.
