Dr. James McCaffrey of Microsoft Research uses Python code samples and screenshots to explain naive Bayes classification, a machine learning technique used to predict the class of an item based on two ...

Naive Bayes Classification: A probabilistic model that applies Bayes’ theorem assuming conditional independence among features, used extensively for its efficiency and interpretability.

In this paper, the authors propose a hybrid system of SMS classification to detect spam or ham, using Naive Bayes classifier and Apriori algorithm.

We show that the 'naive Bayes' classifier which assumes independent covariates greatly outperforms the Fisher linear discriminant rule under broad conditions when the number of variables grows faster ...
