Applications of psychological science for actionable analytics

Abstract

According to psychological scientists, humans understand models that most match their own internal models, which they characterize as lists of "heuristic"s (i.e. lists of very succinct rules). One such heuristic rule generator is the Fast-and-Frugal Trees (FFT) preferred by psychological scientists. Despite their successful use in many applied domains, FFTs have not been applied in software analytics. Accordingly, this paper assesses FFTs for software analytics.
