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.
In statistical classification, the Bayes classifier is the classifier having the smallest probability of misclassification of all classifiers using the same set of features. [ 1 ] Definition
A training data set is a data set of examples used during the learning process and is used to fit the parameters (e.g., weights) of, for example, a classifier. [9] [10]For classification tasks, a supervised learning algorithm looks at the training data set to determine, or learn, the optimal combinations of variables that will generate a good predictive model. [11]
These are features of the predicted field and so are typically the predicted value itself, the probability, cluster affinity (for clustering models), standard error, etc. The latest release of PMML, PMML 4.1, extended Output to allow for generic post-processing of model outputs. In PMML 4.1, all the built-in and custom functions that were ...
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.
Definition: We say that is efficiently learnable using in the classification noise model if there exists a learning algorithm that has access to (,) and a polynomial (,,,) such that for any , and it outputs, in a number of calls to the oracle bounded by (,,,, ()), a function that satisfies with probability at least the condition ().
Naive Bayes spam filtering is a baseline technique for dealing with spam that can tailor itself to the email needs of individual users and give low false positive spam detection rates that are generally acceptable to users. It is one of the oldest ways of doing spam filtering, with roots in the 1990s.
