  • A multi-label classification is to find multiple labels associated with the input pattern. Multi-label classification can be achieved by extending conventional single-label classification. Common extension techniques are known as Binary relevance, Label powerset, and Classifier chains. However, most of the extended multi-label naive bayes classifier has not been able to accurately estimate posterior probabilities because it does not reflect the label dependency. And the remaining extended multi-label naive bayes classifier has a problem that it is unstable to estimate posterior probability according to the label selection order. To estimate posterior probability well, we propose a new posterior probability estimation method that reflects the probability between all labels and labels efficiently. The proposed method reflects the correlation between labels. And we have confirmed through experiments that the extended multi-label naive bayes classifier using the proposed method has higher accuracy then the existing multi-label naive bayes classifiers.

  • The naive Bayes classifier is one of the most straightforward classification tools and directly estimates the class probability. However, because it relies on the independent assumption of the predictor, which is rarely satisfied in real-world problems, its application is limited in practice. In this article, we propose employing sufficient dimension reduction (SDR) to substantially improve the performance of the naive Bayes classifier, which is often deteriorated when the number of predictors is not restrictively small. This is not surprising as SDR reduces the predictor dimension without sacrificing classification information, and predictors in the reduced space are constructed to be uncorrelated. Therefore, SDR leads the naive Bayes to no longer be naive. We applied the proposed naive Bayes classifier after SDR to build a recommendation system for the eyewear-frames based on customers' face shape, demonstrating its utility in the top-k classification problem.

  • In the text classification domain, labeling the training documents is an expensive process because it requires human expertise and is a tedious, time-consuming task. Therefore, it is important to reduce the manual labeling of training documents while improving the text classifier. Selective sampling, a form of active learning, reduces the number of training documents that needs to be labeled by examining the unlabeled documents and selecting the most informative ones for manual labeling. We apply this methodology to Naive Bayes, a text classifier renowned as a successful method in text classification. One of the most important issues in selective sampling is to determine the criterion when selecting the training documents from the large pool of unlabeled documents. In this paper, we propose two measures that would determine this criterion : the Mean Absolute Deviation (MAD) and the entropy measure. The experimental results, using Renters 21578 corpus, show that this proposed learning method improves Naive Bayes text classifier more than the existing ones.

  • Though naive Bayes text classifiers are widely used because of its simplicity, the techniques for improving performances of these classifiers have been rarely studied. In this paper, we propose and evaluate some general and effective techniques for improving performance of the naive Bayes text classifier. We suggest document model based parameter estimation and document length normalization to alleviate the Problems in the traditional multinomial approach for text classification. In addition, Mutual-Information-weighted naive Bayes text classifier is proposed to increase the effect of highly informative words. Our techniques are evaluated on the Reuters21578 and 20 Newsgroups collections, and significant improvements are obtained over the existing multinomial naive Bayes approach.

  • Red tide is a natural phenomenon to bloom harmful algal, which fish and shellfish die en masse. Red tide damage with respect to sea farming has been occurred each year. Red tide damage can be minimized by means of prediction of red tide blooms. Red tide prediction using naive bayes classifier can be achieve good prediction results. The result of naive bayes method only determine red tide blooms, whereas the method can not know how increasing of red tide algae density. In this paper, we proposed the red tide blooms prediction method using fuzzy reasoning and naive bayes classifier. The proposed method can enhance the precision of red tide prediction and forecast the increasing density of red tide algae.

  • We present a robust speaker identification algorithm that uses novel features based on soft bag-of-word representation and a simple Naive Bayes classifier. The bag-of-words (BoW) based histogram feature descriptor is typically constructed by summarizing and identifying representative prototypes from low-level spectral features extracted from training data. In this paper, we define a generalization of the standard BoW. In particular, we define three types of BoW that are based on crisp voting, fuzzy memberships, and possibilistic memberships. We analyze our mapping with three common classifiers: Naive Bayes classifier (NB); K-nearest neighbor classifier (KNN); and support vector machines (SVM). The proposed algorithms are evaluated using large datasets that simulate medical crises. We show that the proposed soft bag-of-words feature representation approach achieves a significant improvement when compared to the state-of-art methods.

  • 본 논문에서는 Naive Bayes 문서 분류기를 위한 새로운 학습모델을 제안한다. 이 모델에서는 라벨이 없는 문서들의 집합으로부터 선택한 적은 수의 학습 문서들을 이용하여 문서 분류기를 재학습한다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 학습 방법을 따를 경우 작은 비용으로도 문서 분류기의 정확도가 크게 향상될 수 있다는 사실을 보인다. 이와 같이, 알고리즘을 통해 라벨이 없는 문서들의 집합으로부터 정보량이 큰 문서를 선택한 후, 전문가가 이 문서에 라벨을 부여하는 방식으로 학습문서를 결정하는 것을 selective sampling이라 한다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 selective sampling 문제를 Naive Bayes 문서 분류기에 적용한다. 제안한 학습 방법에서는 라벨이 없는 문서들의 집합으로부터 재학습 문서를 선택하는 기준 측정치로서 평균절대편차(Mean Absolute Deviation), 엔트로피 측정치를 사용한다. 실험을 통해서 제안한 학습 방법이 기존의 방법인 신뢰도(Confidence measure)를 이용한 학습 방법보다 Naive Bayes 문서 분류기의 성능을 더 많이 향상시킨다는 사실을 보인다.

  • Objective : The purpose of this study is to explore the most suitable machine learning model algorithm for Shanghanlun diagnostic system classification using natural language processing (NLP). Methods : A total of 201 data items were collected from 『Shanghanlun』 and 『Clinical Shanghanlun』, 'Taeyangbyeong-gyeolhyung' and 'Eumyangyeokchahunobokbyeong' were excluded to prevent oversampling or undersampling. Data were pretreated using a twitter Korean tokenizer and trained by logistic regression, ridge regression, lasso regression, naive bayes classifier, decision tree, and random forest algorithms. The accuracy of the models were compared. Results : As a result of machine learning, ridge regression and naive Bayes classifier showed an accuracy of 0.843, logistic regression and random forest showed an accuracy of 0.804, and decision tree showed an accuracy of 0.745, while lasso regression showed an accuracy of 0.608. Conclusions : Ridge regression and naive Bayes classifier are suitable NLP machine learning models for the Shanghanlun diagnostic system classification.

  • 단어의 의미 중의성을 해소하는 것은 자연언어처리의 중요한 문제 중의 하나이다. 특히 문서의 주제어가 중의성을 가질 때, 이 문서는 부적합한 범주에 속하게 되어 정보검색시 잡음을 일으키는 원인이 되기도 한다. 그러므로, 본 논문에서는 문서를 대표하는 주재어의 의미 중의성을 해소하기 위해 주변 문맥자질을 고려하는 방법을 모색한다 이를 위해 자연언어처리의 통계적 방법으로 문서 범주화에 많이 사용되는 Naive Bayes 분류기를 중의성 해소에 적용하고, 그 결과 얻어진 중의성 해소 성능을 평가한다.

  • 문서 범주화는 전자 정보환경에서 매우 유용한 정보처리 도구로서, 다양한 문서 범주화 기법 및 성능향상을 위한 연구들이 지속적으로 이루어지고 있다. 그러나, 대부분의 연구들은 문서 범주화의 대상이 되는 단어 자질 공간의 차원축소 문제에만 집중되었을 뿐, 학습단계에 큰 영향을 미치는 다범주 단어 자질의 범주 모호성은 고려하지 않았다. 본 연구에서는, 다범주 자질의 범주 모호성을 해소함으로써 문서 범주화의 성능향상을 유도하는 범주 모호성 해소 가중치 W를 제시하고 이를 실험을 통해 증명하였다. 실험에서는 Naive Bayes 분류기와 가중치 W를 적용한 Naive Bayes-W 분류기를 직접 구축하여 문서 범주화의 성능향상 여부를 비교하는데 사용하였다. 도출된 실험결과를 통해, 가중치 W는 현재의 분류기가 가지고 있는 자질 표현의 범주 모호성이라는 단점을 보완하고 분류기의 성능향상을 유도함으로써 정보검색시스템의 검색효율을 높이는 데 활용될 수 있음일 증명되었다.
