Nave-Bayes-Classifiers

Naive Bayes classifiers are a family of probabilistic models based on Bayes’ theorem, which assumes independence among features. They are particularly effective for classification tasks, especially in text-related applications like spam detection and sentiment analysis. Despite their simplistic assumptions, Naive Bayes classifiers are known for their speed, scalability, and interpretability, making them a popular choice in machine learning. There are several variants, including Gaussian, Bernoulli, and Multinomial Naive Bayes, each suited for different types of data. Their efficiency and accuracy often outperform more complex models, especially when the independence assumption holds true.
