  • Though naive Bayes text classifiers are widely used because of its simplicity, the techniques for improving performances of these classifiers have been rarely studied. In this paper, we propose and evaluate some general and effective techniques for improving performance of the naive Bayes text classifier. We suggest document model based parameter estimation and document length normalization to alleviate the Problems in the traditional multinomial approach for text classification. In addition, Mutual-Information-weighted naive Bayes text classifier is proposed to increase the effect of highly informative words. Our techniques are evaluated on the Reuters21578 and 20 Newsgroups collections, and significant improvements are obtained over the existing multinomial naive Bayes approach.

  • A multi-label classification is to find multiple labels associated with the input pattern. Multi-label classification can be achieved by extending conventional single-label classification. Common extension techniques are known as Binary relevance, Label powerset, and Classifier chains. However, most of the extended multi-label naive bayes classifier has not been able to accurately estimate posterior probabilities because it does not reflect the label dependency. And the remaining extended multi-label naive bayes classifier has a problem that it is unstable to estimate posterior probability according to the label selection order. To estimate posterior probability well, we propose a new posterior probability estimation method that reflects the probability between all labels and labels efficiently. The proposed method reflects the correlation between labels. And we have confirmed through experiments that the extended multi-label naive bayes classifier using the proposed method has higher accuracy then the existing multi-label naive bayes classifiers.

  • The naive Bayes classifier is one of the most straightforward classification tools and directly estimates the class probability. However, because it relies on the independent assumption of the predictor, which is rarely satisfied in real-world problems, its application is limited in practice. In this article, we propose employing sufficient dimension reduction (SDR) to substantially improve the performance of the naive Bayes classifier, which is often deteriorated when the number of predictors is not restrictively small. This is not surprising as SDR reduces the predictor dimension without sacrificing classification information, and predictors in the reduced space are constructed to be uncorrelated. Therefore, SDR leads the naive Bayes to no longer be naive. We applied the proposed naive Bayes classifier after SDR to build a recommendation system for the eyewear-frames based on customers' face shape, demonstrating its utility in the top-k classification problem.

  • Fingerprint classification reduces the number of matches required in automated fingerprint identification systems by categorizing fingerprints into a predefined class. Support vector machines (SVMs), widely used in pattern classification, have produced a high accuracy rate when performing fingerprint classification. In order to effectively apply SVMs to multi-class fingerprint classification systems, we propose a novel method in which SVMs are generated with the one-vs-all (OVA) scheme and dynamically ordered with $na{\ddot{i}}ve$ Bayes classifiers. More specifically, it uses representative fingerprint features such as the FingerCode, singularities and pseudo ridges to train the OVA SVMs and $na{\ddot{i}}ve$ Bayes classifiers. The proposed method has been validated on the NIST-4 database and produced a classification accuracy of 90.8% for 5-class classification. Especially, it has effectively managed tie problems usually occurred in applying OVA SVMs to multi-class classification.

  • We present a robust speaker identification algorithm that uses novel features based on soft bag-of-word representation and a simple Naive Bayes classifier. The bag-of-words (BoW) based histogram feature descriptor is typically constructed by summarizing and identifying representative prototypes from low-level spectral features extracted from training data. In this paper, we define a generalization of the standard BoW. In particular, we define three types of BoW that are based on crisp voting, fuzzy memberships, and possibilistic memberships. We analyze our mapping with three common classifiers: Naive Bayes classifier (NB); K-nearest neighbor classifier (KNN); and support vector machines (SVM). The proposed algorithms are evaluated using large datasets that simulate medical crises. We show that the proposed soft bag-of-words feature representation approach achieves a significant improvement when compared to the state-of-art methods.

  • We consider the problem of exploiting a taxonomy of propositionalized attributes in order to learn compact and robust classifiers. We introduce Propositionalized Attribute Taxonomy guided Naive Bayes Learner (PAT-NBL), an inductive learning algorithm that exploits a taxonomy of propositionalized attributes as prior knowledge to generate compact and accurate classifiers. PAT-NBL uses top-down and bottom-up search to find a locally optimal cut that corresponds to the instance space from propositionalized attribute taxonomy and data. Our experimental results on University of California-Irvine (UCI) repository data sets show that the proposed algorithm can generate a classifier that is sometimes comparably compact and accurate to those produced by standard Naive Bayes learners.

  • In many intrusion detection applications, n-gram approach has been widely applied. However, n-gram approach has shown a few problems including unscalability and double counting of features. To address those problems, we applied n-gram augmented Naive Bayes with k-truncated suffix tree (k-TST) storage mechanism directly to classify intrusive sequences and compared performance with those of Naive Bayes and Support Vector Machines (SVM) with n-gram features by the experiments on host-based intrusion detection benchmark data sets. Experimental results on the University of New Mexico (UNM) benchmark data sets show that the n-gram augmented method, which solves the problem of independence violation that happens when n-gram features are directly applied to Naive Bayes (i.e. Naive Bayes with n-gram features), yields intrusion detectors with higher accuracy than those from Naive Bayes with n-gram features and shows comparable accuracy to those from SVM with n-gram features. For the scalable and efficient counting of n-gram features, we use k-truncated suffix tree mechanism for storing n-gram features. With the k-truncated suffix tree storage mechanism, we tested the performance of the classifiers up to 20-gram, which illustrates the scalability and accuracy of n-gram augmented Naive Bayes with k-truncated suffix tree storage mechanism.

  • Pursuance Sentiment Analysis on Twitter is difficult then performance it's used for great review. The present be for the reason to the tweet is extremely small with mostly contain slang, emoticon, and hash tag with other tweet words. A feature extraction stands every technique concerning structure and aspect point beginning particular tweets. The subdivision in a aspect vector is an integer that has a commitment on ascribing a supposition class to a tweet. The cycle of feature extraction is to eradicate the exact quality to get better the accurateness of the classifications models. In this manuscript we proposed Term Frequency-Inverse Document Frequency (TF-IDF) method is to secure Principal Component Analysis (PCA) with Naïve Bayes Classifiers. As the classifications process, the work proposed can produce different aspects from wildly valued feature commencing a Twitter dataset.

  • In order to improve the performance of the visual inspection process, in addition to existing automatic visual inspection machine and human inspectors have developed a new process configuration using a Naive Bayes classifier. By applying the classifier, defect leakage and human inspector's work amount could be improved at the same time. New classification method called AMPB was applied instead of conventional methods based on MAP classification. By experimental results using the filter product for camera modules, it was confirmed that it is possible to configure the process at the level of leakage ratio 1.14% and human inspector's work amount ratio 75.5%. It is significant that the result can be applied in such a wide range as gas leak detection which is the collaboration process between inspection machine and human inspector's
