Regression tree river before converting the table to r

Question

I used the CHAID package from this link . It gives me a chaid object that can be built. I need a decision table with each decision rule in a column instead of a decision tree .. But I don’t understand how to access the nodes and paths in this chaid object ... Help me .. I followed the procedure in this link

I can not post my data here because it is too long. So I am posting a code that takes a sample of data provided with chaid to complete the task.

copied from the user manual reference:

library("CHAID")

  ### fit tree to subsample
  set.seed(290875)
  USvoteS <- USvote[sample(1:nrow(USvote), 1000),]

  ctrl <- chaid_control(minsplit = 200, minprob = 0.1)
  chaidUS <- chaid(vote3 ~ ., data = USvoteS, control = ctrl)

  print(chaidUS)
  plot(chaidUS)

Output:

Model formula:
vote3 ~ gender + ager + empstat + educr + marstat

Fitted party:
[1] root
|   [2] marstat in married
|   |   [3] educr <HS, HS, >HS: Gore (n = 311, err = 49.5%)
|   |   [4] educr in College, Post Coll: Bush (n = 249, err = 35.3%)
|   [5] marstat in widowed, divorced, never married
|   |   [6] gender in male: Gore (n = 159, err = 47.8%)
|   |   [7] gender in female
|   |   |   [8] ager in 18-24, 25-34, 35-44, 45-54: Gore (n = 127, err = 22.0%)
|   |   |   [9] ager in 55-64, 65+: Gore (n = 115, err = 40.9%)

Number of inner nodes:    4
Number of terminal nodes: 5

CHAID partykit ( ). - node (split) .

. .

tree2table <- function(party_tree) {

  df_list <- list()
  var_names <-  attr( party_tree$terms, "term.labels")
  var_levels <- lapply( party_tree$data, levels)

  walk_the_tree <- function(node, rule_branch = NULL) {
    # depth-first walk on partynode structure (recursive function)
    # decision rules are extracted for every branch
    if(missing(rule_branch)) {
      rule_branch <- setNames(data.frame(t(replicate(length(var_names), NA))), var_names)
      rule_branch <- cbind(rule_branch, nodeId = NA)
      rule_branch <- cbind(rule_branch, predict = NA)
    }
    if(is.terminal(node)) {
      rule_branch[["nodeId"]] <- node$id
      rule_branch[["predict"]] <- predict_party(party_tree, node$id) 
      df_list[[as.character(node$id)]] <<- rule_branch
    } else {
      for(i in 1:length(node)) {
        rule_branch1 <- rule_branch
        val1 <- decision_rule(node,i)
        rule_branch1[[names(val1)[1]]] <- val1
        walk_the_tree(node[i], rule_branch1)
      }
    }
  }

  decision_rule <- function(node, i) {
    # returns split decision rule in data.frame with variable name an values
    var_name <- var_names[node$split$varid[[1]]]
    values_vec <- var_levels[[var_name]][ node$split$index == i]
    values_txt <- paste(values_vec, collapse = ", ")
    return( setNames(values_txt, var_name))
  }
  # compile data frame list
  walk_the_tree(party_tree$node)
  # merge all dataframes
  res_table <- Reduce(rbind, df_list)
  return(res_table)
}

CHAID:

table1 <- tree2table(chaidUS)
