    1) Naive Bayes is a supervised machine learning algorithm used for classification tasks. It is based on Bayes' theorem and works by calculating the probability of a data point belonging to a particular class. 2) The naive Bayes algorithm assumes independence between predictive attributes, allowing it to classify after training on small datasets. 3) Naive Bayes classifiers have proven effective for problems like spam filtering, sentiment analysis, and medical diagnosis due to their simplicity, scalability, and ability to handle both continuous and discrete data.

    INTRODUCTION
     All of Machine Learning Algorithms need to be
    trained for supervised learning tasks like classification,
    prediction etc .
     By training it means to train them on particular inputs
    so that later on we may test them for unknown inputs
    for which they may classify or predict etc based on
    their learning
     In general , input set is divided into train set and test
    set.
     Naive Bayes is one of the method of supervised
    learning.
     Support Vector Machines, linear regression, logistic
    regression are some other examples.
     Naive Bayes classification is based on , the idea of
    Conditional Probability and Bayes rule.
     In Conditional probability we find the probability of
    an event given that some event has already occurred .
     In Bayes theorem, we find just the opposite, we find the
    cause of some event that has already occurred.
     Conditional Probability Formula:

    If A and B are two dependent events such that


    given event B has happened and we have to find the
    probability of event A, then probability of A given B,
    denoted by P(A/B) is given by
    P(A/B) = P(A∩B)/P(B).

     Formula for Bayes’ Theorem:


    If A and B are two independent events such that probability of event
    A is denoted by,

    P(A/B) = P(B/A).P(A)/P(B).
     In reality, we have to predict an outcome given
    multiple evidences. In that case, the math gets very
    complicated.
     So we have to 'uncouple' multiple pieces of evidence,
    and treat each piece of evidence as independent.
     This approach is called Naive Bayes classification.
     When trying to classify, each outcome is called a class
    and it has class label.
     The class that has the highest probability is declared
    the "winner" and that class label gets assigned to that
    combination of evidences.
    NAIVE BAYES FORMULA:
     P(Outcome|MultipleEvidence)=P(Evidence1|Outcome
    ) x P(Evidence2|outcome) x ... x
    P(EvidenceN|outcome) x P(Outcome) scaled by
    P(Multiple Evidence).
     P(outcome|evidence) = P(Likelihood of Evidence) x
    Prior probability of outcome /P(Evidence)
    ADVANTAGES
     Very simple, easy to implement and fast.
     Need less training data.
     Highly scalable. It scales linearly with the any number
    of events.
     Can make probabilistic predictions.
     Handles continuous and discrete data.
     Not sensitive to irrelevant features.
    APPLICATIONS
     Categorizing news.
     Email spam detection.
     Face recognition.
     Sentiment analysis.
     Medical diagnosis.
     Digit recognition .
     Weather prediction .
    CONCLUSION
    The naive Bayes model is tremendously appealing
    because of its simplicity, elegance, and robustness. It is one
    of the oldest formal classification algorithms, and yet even
    in its simplest form it is often surprisingly effective. It is
    widely used in areas such as text classification and spam
    filtering. A large number of modifications have been
    introduced, by the statistical, data mining, machine
    learning, and pattern recognition communities, in an
    attempt to make it more flexible, but one has to recognize
    that such modifications are necessarily complications,
    which detract from its basic simplicity.
