What Is Naive Bayes Classifier

In the field of statistics, naive Bayes classifiers are a family of straightforward "probabilistic classifiers" that are derived from the application of Bayes' theorem with strong (naive) assumptions of independence between the features. They are among the Bayesian network models that are the simplest, but when combined with kernel density estimation, they are capable of achieving great levels of accuracy.
