MATLAB: What decision tree learning algorithm does MATLAB use to create decision trees

Question

I'm doing a predictive modeling research project and for my report I can't just explain that I input the data into MATLAB and it spits out a model for me after using classregtree. So does MATLAB use ID3, CART, C4.5 for creating trees? What is MATLAB's univariate splitting criteria?

Answer 1

classregtree uses the CART algorithm described in the Classification and Regression Trees book by Breiman et al.
