Nomograms for Visualization of Naive Bayesian Classifier
نویسندگان
چکیده
Besides good predictive performance, the naive Bayesian classifier can also offer a valuable insight into the structure of the training data and effects of the attributes on the class probabilities. This structure may be effectively revealed through visualization of the classifier. We propose a new way to visualize the naive Bayesian model in the form of a nomogram. The advantages of the proposed method are simplicity of presentation, clear display of the effects of individual attribute values, and visualization of confidence intervals. Nomograms are intuitive and when used for decision support can provide a visual explanation of predicted probabilities. And finally, with a nomogram, a naive Bayesian model can be printed out and used for probability prediction without the use of computer or calculator.

A New Hybrid Framework for Filter based Feature Selection using Information Gain and Symmetric Uncertainty (TECHNICAL NOTE)
Feature selection is a pre-processing technique used for eliminating the irrelevant and redundant features which results in enhancing the performance of the classifiers. When a dataset contains more irrelevant and redundant features, it fails to increase the accuracy and also reduces the performance of the classifiers. To avoid them, this paper presents a new hybrid feature selection method usi...
متن کاملA Study of AdaBoost with Naive Bayesian Classifiers: Weakness and Improvement
This article investigates boosting naive Bayesian classification. It first shows that boosting does not improve the accuracy of the naive Bayesian classifier as much as we expected in a set of natural domains. By analyzing the reason for boosting’s weakness, we propose to introduce tree structures into naive Bayesian classification to improve the performance of boosting when working with naive ...
متن کاملA Probabilistic Bayesian Classifier Approach for Breast Cancer Diagnosis and Prognosis
Basically, medical diagnosis problems are the most effective component of treatment policies. Recently, significant advances have been formed in medical diagnosis fields using data mining techniques. Data mining or Knowledge Discovery is searching large databases to discover patterns and evaluate the probability of next occurrences. In this paper, Bayesian Classifier is used as a Non-linear dat...
متن کاملA New Approach for Text Documents Classification with Invasive Weed Optimization and Naive Bayes Classifier
With the fast increase of the documents, using Text Document Classification (TDC) methods has become a crucial matter. This paper presented a hybrid model of Invasive Weed Optimization (IWO) and Naive Bayes (NB) classifier (IWO-NB) for Feature Selection (FS) in order to reduce the big size of features space in TDC. TDC includes different actions such as text processing, feature extraction, form...
