Systems and Methods for A Heuristic Tree Optimization Using A Prioritized Dimension Selection For Policies with Multiple Given Dimensions

Abstract: various embodiments provide systems and methods for a heuristic policy search tree optimization using a prioritized dimension selection. a computer-implemented method for optimizing a policy search tree includes differentiating, with a network appliance, dimensions based on multiple priority levels of a priority dimension configurable setting, determining whether a first dimension having a first priority level for a node of the policy search tree satisfies configurable thresholds for characteristics of a policy set, and selecting the first dimension having the first priority level if no configurable threshold violation for the first dimension.
