    Limitations of Decision Trees

    • Information derived from decision trees is based on estimated probabilities rather than exact data.
    • Decision-making often incorporates qualitative factors, such as legal constraints and personal opinions, which are difficult to quantify.
    • Time lags can affect decision-making; decisions may be based on data that becomes outdated during the process.
    • Using decision trees can be resource-intensive and time-consuming, though computerized models can streamline analysis.
    • Data manipulation is a concern; decision-makers may exhibit bias in assigning probabilities, impacting final results.
    • Decision trees lack adaptability to rapid changes in the business environment, rendering previous analyses obsolete during economic shifts.
