NaiveBayes

class pyspark.ml.classification.NaiveBayes(*, featuresCol='features', labelCol='label', predictionCol='prediction', probabilityCol='probability', rawPredictionCol='rawPrediction', smoothing=1.0, modelType='multinomial', thresholds=None, weightCol=None)[source]

Naive Bayes Classifiers. It supports both Multinomial and Bernoulli NB. Multinomial NB can handle finitely supported discrete data. For example, by converting documents into TF-IDF vectors, it can be used for document classification. By making every vector a binary (0/1) data, it can also be used as Bernoulli NB.

The input feature values for Multinomial NB and Bernoulli NB must be nonnegative. Since 3.0.0, it supports Complement NB which is an adaptation of the Multinomial NB. Specifically, Complement NB uses statistics from the complement of each class to compute the model’s coefficients. The inventors of Complement NB show empirically that the parameter estimates for CNB are more stable than those for Multinomial NB. Like Multinomial NB, the input feature values for Complement NB must be nonnegative. Since 3.0.0, it also supports Gaussian NB. which can handle continuous data.

New in version 1.5.0.

clear(param)

Clears a param from the param map if it has been explicitly set.
