Abstract

Decision tree is a very popular data mining method. This paper introduces the theory of decision tree, analyzes the structure of decision tree, and discusses the idea of C5.0 algorithm and its advantages and disadvantages. At the same time, in order to deeply understand the main psychological symptoms and factors affecting college students’ mental health, C5.0 algorithm is applied to college students’ mental health evaluation data. According to the mining results, students’ mental health problems can be more deeply understood, It is of practical significance to carry out mental health education for college students.
