Introduction

Learning Objectives:

  • Apply Bayesian updating
  • Implement Naive Bayes classifier
  • Understand conjugate priors

Naive Bayes

Classify based on: P(Y=c∣X1,...,Xn)proptoP(Y=c)prodiP(Xi∣Y=c)P(Y=c | X_1, ..., X_n) propto P(Y=c) prod_i P(X_i | Y=c)

"Naive" assumption: Features are independent given class (often violated but works well!)

Applications

Apply these concepts to solve real-world problems in probability and statistics.

python
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

# Example implementation
print("Apply concepts from Bayesian Inference and Naive Bayes Classifier")

Key Takeaways

Master these advanced concepts to complete your probability and combinatorics journey!
