"A decision tree is a decision support tool that uses a tree-like graph or model of decisions and their possible consequences, including chance event outcomes, resource costs, and utility. It is one way to display an algorithm.
Decision trees are commonly used in operations research, specifically in decision analysis, to help identify a strategy most likely to reach a goal. ...
A decision tree is a flowchart-like structure in which internal node represents test on an attribute, each branch represents outcome of test and each leaf node represents class label (decision taken after computing all attributes). A path from root to leaf represents classification rules.
In decision analysis a decision tree and the closely related influence diagram is used as a visual and analytical decision support tool, where the expected values (or expected utility) of competing alternatives are calculated.
A decision tree consists of 3 types of nodes:
(1) Decision nodes - commonly represented by squares.
(2) Chance nodes - represented by circles.
(3) End nodes - represented by triangles.
Decision trees are commonly used in operations research, specifically in decision analysis, to help identify a strategy most likely to reach a goal." [Decision tree. Wikipedia]
The marketing diagram example "Decision tree" was created using the ConceptDraw PRO diagramming and vector drawing software extended with the Marketing Diagrams solution from the Marketing area of ConceptDraw Solution Park.

Influence Diagram

This sample shows the Influence Diagram. It was created in ConceptDraw DIAGRAM diagramming and vector drawing software using the Basic Diagramming Solution from the Universal Diagramming area of ConceptDraw Solution Park. Influence diagram represents the directed acyclic graph with three types of nodes and three types of arcs that connect the nodes. Decision node is drawn as a rectangle, Uncertainty node is drawn as an oval, Value node is drawn as an octagon.

Cause and Effect Analysis

Cause and Effect Analysis - The Seven Management and Planning Tools is a tool for Cause and Effect Analysis that allows users to analyze the root causes for factors that influenced the problem. This diagram is constructed separately for each highly prioritized factor. The Diagram is then used for further formulation of potential actions.

Fault Tree Diagram

ConceptDraw DIAGRAM diagramming and vector drawing software offers the Fault Tree Analysis Diagrams Solution from the Industrial Engineering Area of ConceptDraw Solution Park for quick and easy creating the Fault Tree Diagram of any degree of detailing.

Influence Diagram Software

Influence diagram (ID) is a graphical and mathematical representation of the decision. Influence diagrams are widely used in the decision analysis and in the game theory. They are the alternative to the decision tree. The influence diagram gives to analyst the high-level conceptual view that it can use to build the detailed quantitative model. This sample shows the Influence diagram. It is a directed acyclic graph with three types of nodes: Decision node is drawn as a rectangle, Uncertainty node is drawn as an oval, Value node is drawn as an octagon. The nodes are connected with arcs.

Decision Making Software For Small Business

A software tool that saves your time on making decisions now has the ability to make decisions with remote team via Skype.

CORRECTIVE ACTIONS PLANNING. Risk Diagram (PDPC)

Risk Diagram (PDPC) - ConceptDraw Office suite is a software for Risks Diagram making. This diagram identifies possible risks in accomplishing corrective actions. With the Risks Diagram, one analyzes each action separately in a tree of all actions and develops a preventive action in response of each potential obstacles or circumstances which may be a risk.

Pyramid Diagram and Pyramid Chart

Pyramid Diagram, Triangle Chart or Triangular Diagram is a convenient and useful type of diagrams, which lets represent the data hierarchical structure and to illustrate the foundation-based relationships between the hierarchy levels. Pyramid Diagrams are used to visualize effectively the hierarchical, as well as proportional and foundation-based relationships, the process steps, the interconnections of organizational layers or topics. ConceptDraw DIAGRAM software enhanced with Pyramid Diagrams solution from Marketing area of ConceptDraw Solution Park is a powerful business charting software, that includes all required tools for designing the multilevel Pyramid Diagrams as quickly as possible. The build-in vector stencils and templates are the great aid for designers, a variety of examples and samples is a good base and source of inspiration. Use attractive and vivid 2D and 3D Pyramid Diagrams and Triangle Charts designed in ConceptDraw DIAGRAM to illustrate your documents, presentations, infographics, articles, reports, websites, etc.

Problem solving

Problem Solving - ConceptDraw Office suite is a software for the problem solving. The Seven Management and Planning Tools solution is a set of such tools for investigating complex problems. These tools are exemplary at organizing research, parsing complex problems, providing a structure for the details, helping managers make decisions, and organizing effective communications in a visual manner that keeps everyone involved.

PDPC

ConceptDraw DIAGRAM extended with Seven Management and Planning Tools Solution from the Management Area of ConceptDraw Solution Park is the best software for drawing all types of diagrams from the Seven Management and Planning Tools: Affinity Diagram, Relations Diagram, Prioritization Matrix, Root Cause Analysis Tree Diagram, Involvement Matrix, PERT Chart, and Risk Diagram (PDPC).

Preventive Action

Preventive Action - ConceptDraw Office suite is a software for the Preventive Action making. The Seven Management and Planning Tools solution is a set of such tools for problems preventive actions via investigating of the core problem. Skilled use of these diagrams makes collaborative teamwork both more engaging and more effective.

Corrective Action Planning

One of the stages of the problem's solving process scenario is Corrective Action Planning. Corrective action planning define people and groups involvement in corrective actions by roles, identify logical sequences of scheduled actions and critical path of problem solving, identify possible risks of action plan and propose preventive actions.

How To Make the Right Decision in Projects

A key point of conference success is the ability to see slides in real time, and hold documented discussions during the meeting. Remote Presentation for Skype is a new solution allows real-time presenting that benefits work groups who need collaborate by web meetings.

Root Cause Tree Diagram

The Root Cause Tree Diagram is a chart that helps determine the root causes of factors that influence the problem, to represent and analyze them. This diagram is constructed separately for each high priority factor. First it is needed to identify the root causes for a factor, display their structure and then propose the possible corrective actions. But how to create Root Cause Tree Diagram with the least efforts and time? ConceptDraw MINDMAP will effectively help you in drawing MINDMAP Root Cause Tree Diagram and Root Cause Analysis Tree Diagram used for further formulation of actions. The Root Cause Tree Diagram template, which can be opened at the program from the Input tab, supplies you with a basic mind map structure for your diagram. The central idea describes briefly a problem, the main topics represent the high-level causes of a problem, their subtopics give more details about the different parts of given causes. At the last level of tree are described the potential solutions to each of detailed parts of the causes.
