For example, for a binary classification problem with one categorical feature with three categories A, B and C with corresponding proportion of label 1 as 0.2, 0.6 and 0.4, the categorical -features are ordered as A followed by C followed B or A, B, C. The two split candidates are A \| C, B -and A , B \| C where \| denotes the split. A similar heuristic is used for multiclass classification +features are ordered as A followed by C followed B or A, C, B. The two split candidates are A \| C, B +and A , C \| B where \| denotes the split. A similar heuristic is used for multiclass classification when `$2^(M-1)-1$` is greater than the number of bins -- the impurity for each categorical feature value is used for ordering. |
