Naive Bayes classifier for multinomial models.

The multinomial Naive Bayes classifier is suitable for classification with discrete features (e.g., word counts for text classification)

Time complexity is $O(K * N * C)$ where $N$ is the number of samples and $K$ is the number of features, and $C$ is the number of classes.

Summary

Functions

Fits a naive Bayes model. The function assumes that targets y are integers between 0 and num_classes - 1 (inclusive). Otherwise, those samples will not contribute to class_count.

Perform classification on an array of test vectors x using model.

Return joint log probability estimates for the test vector x using model.

Return log-probability estimates for the test vector x using model.

Return probability estimates for the test vector x using model.

Functions

Fits a naive Bayes model. The function assumes that targets y are integers between 0 and num_classes - 1 (inclusive). Otherwise, those samples will not contribute to class_count.

Options

  • :num_classes (pos_integer/0) - Required. Number of different classes used in training.

  • :alpha - Additive (Laplace/Lidstone) smoothing parameter (set alpha to 0.0 and force_alpha to true, for no smoothing). The default value is 1.0.

  • :force_alpha (boolean/0) - If false and alpha is less than 1e-10, it will set alpha to 1e-10. If true, alpha will remain unchanged. This may cause numerical errors if alpha is too close to 0. The default value is true.

  • :fit_priors (boolean/0) - Whether to learn class prior probabilities or not. If false, a uniform prior will be used. The default value is true.

  • :class_priors - Prior probabilities of the classes. If specified, the priors are not adjusted according to the data.

  • :sample_weights - List of num_samples elements. A list of 1.0 values is used if none is given.

Return Values

The function returns a struct with the following parameters:

  • :class_count - Number of samples encountered for each class during fitting. This value is weighted by the sample weight when provided.

  • :class_log_priors - Smoothed empirical log probability for each class.

  • :feature_count - Number of samples encountered for each (class, feature) during fitting. This value is weighted by the sample weight when provided.

  • :feature_log_probability - Empirical log probability of features given a class, P(x_i|y).
