14. Joint Probability Distribution In the study of probability, given at least two random variables X, Y, ..., that are defined on a probability space, the joint probability distribution for X, Y, ... is a probability distribution that gives the probability that each of X, Y, ... falls in any particular range or discrete set of values specified for that variable.

18. Bayes’ theorem Bayes' theorem describes the probability of an event, based on conditions that might be related to the event.

20. Naive Bayes is a conditional probability model: given a problem instance to be classified, represented by a vector representing some n features (independent variables), it assigns to this instance probabilities Naive Bayes for each of K possible outcomes or classes.

32. 32 • the multinomial distribution is a generalization of the binomial distribution. • the multinomial distribution gives the probability of any particular combination of numbers of successes for the various categories. • A feature vector is then a histogram, with xi counting the number of times event i was observed in a particular instance. Multinomial Distribution
33. 33 The smoothing priors accounts for features not present in the learning samples and prevents zero probabilities in further computations. - alpha = 1 is called Laplace smoothing - alpha < 1 is called Lidstone smoothing. Multinomial Naive Bayes
34. 34 Multinomial Naive Bayes Application Application: Text classification (where the data are typically represented as word vector counts, although tf-idf vectors are also known to work well in practice).

37. 37 • there may be multiple features but each one is assumed to be a binary-valued (Bernoulli, boolean) variable • if handed any other kind of data, a BernoulliNB instance may binarize its input (depending on the binarize parameter). • text classification => word occurrence vectors Bernoulli Naive Bayes

40. RECAP
41. Naive Bayes :) • Inference is cheap - Fast! • Few parameters • Empirically successful classifier
42. Naive Bayes :( • Assumes independence of features – Doesn’t model interrelationships between attributes • Bad estimator, so the probability outputs are not really useful
