glmtree

The goal of glmtree is to build decision trees with logistic regressions at their leaves, so that the resulting model mixes non parametric VS parametric and stepwise VS linear approaches to have the best predictive results, yet maintaining interpretability.

This is the implementation of glmtree as described in Formalization and study of statistical problems in Credit Scoring, Ehrhardt A. (see manuscript or web article)
