class NaiveBayes extends ProbabilisticClassifier[Vector, NaiveBayes, NaiveBayesModel] with NaiveBayesParams with DefaultParamsWritable

Naive Bayes Classifiers. It supports Multinomial NB (see here) which 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 (see here). 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 (see here) which can handle continuous data.
