A list of fast and frugal trees successfully used in different fields of application are described, presented and illustrated. Fast-and-frugal trees can be used as decision-making tools which operate as lexicographic classifiers, and, if required, associate an action (decision) to each class or category. They were introduced and conceptualized in 2003 (Martignon, et al, 2003; Martignon, Katsikopoulos and Woike, 2008) and are now systematically used in a variety of applied fields. Here a list of such trees used in specific domains is presented and illustrated with corresponding diagrams.
