  3. Naive Bayes classifier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naive_Bayes_classifier

    Example of a naive Bayes classifier depicted as a Bayesian Network. In statistics, naive Bayes classifiers are a family of linear "probabilistic classifiers" which assumes that the features are conditionally independent, given the target class. The strength (naivety) of this assumption is what gives the classifier its name.

  4. Logarithmic growth - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logarithmic_growth

    Any logarithm base can be used, since one can be converted to another by multiplying by a fixed constant. [1] Logarithmic growth is the inverse of exponential growth and is very slow. [2] A familiar example of logarithmic growth is a number, N, in positional notation, which grows as log b (N), where b is the base of the number system used, e.g ...

  5. Loss functions for classification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loss_functions_for...

    However, this loss function is non-convex and non-smooth, and solving for the optimal solution is an NP-hard combinatorial optimization problem. [4] As a result, it is better to substitute loss function surrogates which are tractable for commonly used learning algorithms, as they have convenient properties such as being convex and smooth.

  6. Generative model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generative_model

    Standard examples of each, all of which are linear classifiers, are: generative classifiers: naive Bayes classifier and; linear discriminant analysis; discriminative model: logistic regression; In application to classification, one wishes to go from an observation x to a label y (or probability distribution on labels).

  7. Multiclass classification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiclass_classification

    This section discusses strategies of extending the existing binary classifiers to solve multi-class classification problems. Several algorithms have been developed based on neural networks, decision trees, k-nearest neighbors, naive Bayes, support vector machines and extreme learning machines to address multi-class classification problems ...

  8. Discriminative model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discriminative_model

    Discriminative models, also referred to as conditional models, are a class of models frequently used for classification.They are typically used to solve binary classification problems, i.e. assign labels, such as pass/fail, win/lose, alive/dead or healthy/sick, to existing datapoints.

  9. Bayes estimator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bayes_estimator

    A Bayes estimator derived through the empirical Bayes method is called an empirical Bayes estimator. Empirical Bayes methods enable the use of auxiliary empirical data, from observations of related parameters, in the development of a Bayes estimator. This is done under the assumption that the estimated parameters are obtained from a common prior.
