public class M5Rules extends M5Base implements TechnicalInformationHandler
Generates a decision list for regression problems using separate-and-conquer. In each iteration it builds a model tree using M5 and makes the "best" leaf into a rule.

Valid options are:-N Use unpruned tree/rules
-U Use unsmoothed predictions
-R Build regression tree/rule rather than a model tree/rule
-M <minimum number of instances> Set minimum number of instances per leaf (default 4)
