An imprecise deep forest for classification

作者：

Highlights：

• A modification of the deep forest incorporating the imprecision is proposed.

• The modification is based on applying the imprecise Dirichlet model.

• An algorithm implementing the modification is provided.

• The algorithm is compared with the deep forest by using real data.
