10-601 Naive Bayes

This a lecture used in the Syllabus for Machine Learning 10-601

Slides and Other Materials

• Slides in Powerpoint.
• I did some examples in Matlab:
  • A joint distribution for a die-rolling problem.
  • The roll subroutine used here - an example of vectorized code.
  • Examples of another joint distribution.

Readings

• Mitchell 6.1-6.10

What You Should Know Afterward

• How to implement the multinomial Naive Bayes algorithm
• How to interpret the predictions made by the algorithm
