Abstract: We extend decision tree and random forest algorithms to mixed-curvature product spaces. Such spaces, defined as Cartesian products of Euclidean, hyperspherical, and hyperbolic manifolds, can often embed points from pairwise distances with much lower distortion than in single manifolds. To date, all classifiers for product spaces fit a single linear decision boundary, and no regressor has been described. Our method overcomes these limitations by enabling simple, expressive classification and regression in product manifolds. We demonstrate the superior accuracy of our tool compared to Euclidean methods operating in the ambient space for component manifolds covering a wide range of curvatures, as well as on a selection of product manifolds.
