public class M5P extends M5Base implements Drawable
M5Base. Implements base routines for generating M5 Model trees and rules
The original algorithm M5 was invented by R. Quinlan and Yong Wang made improvements.

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)
-L Save instances at the nodes in the tree (for visualization purposes)
