Decision Policy

Policy Visualization in Decision Tree


Based on your selected Decision Criterion, the SpiceLogic Decision Tree software will show you what action to take in what situation. Once you model your decision tree and attach payoff values to the appropriate nodes, you will see that a green color edge indicates the strategy path as shown below.

Not only that, the action nodes along the optimum paths are colored green as well as you can see from the above screenshot.

If you want to view the rule set based on the evaluated decision policy, you can get that from the Context menu of the diagram,

Right-click context menu on the decision tree diagram with the View submenu open and Policy / Rule Set highlighted, used to open the rule set window.
