Bayesian Learning and Naïve Bayes Methods

The document discusses Bayesian Learning, covering fundamental concepts such as Bayes Theorem, classification using Bayes models, and various algorithms including Naïve Bayes and Gaussian Naive Bayes. It addresses issues like zero-probability error and presents techniques such as Laplace correction to mitigate these problems. Additionally, it introduces the Maximum A Posteriori (MAP) and Maximum Likelihood (ML) hypotheses, along with the Brute Force Bayes Algorithm and Gibbs Algorithm.

Naïve Bayes Algorithm

ZERO PROBABILITY ERROR


Zero-probability error can be solved by applying a smoothing technique called Laplace correction which means
given 1000 data instances in the training dataset, if there are zero instances for a particular value of a feature we
can add 1 instance for each attribute value pair of that feature which will not make much difference for 1000 data
instances and the overall probability does not become zero.
