AB The usage of tree-structured or recursive partitioning methods has grown
steadily in the decade since the appearance of the definitive monograph
'Classification and Regression Trees'. Accompanying this growth have
been many methodologic and software extensions that have served to give
the tree-structured approach even wider applicability. This overview
highlights some of these developments, emphasizing the regression
setting. An illustrative example describes how tree-structured
regression, modified to handle right-censored, left-truncated survival
data with time-dependent covariates, can be used to assess whether rates
of progression from HIV to AIDS have changed over time.
