Overview

About

In this implementation of the Naive Bayes classifier following class conditional distributions are available: 'Bernoulli', 'Categorical', 'Gaussian', 'Poisson', 'Multinomial' and non-parametric representation of the class conditional density estimated via Kernel Density Estimation. Implemented classifiers handle missing data and can take advantage of sparse data.
