Naive Bayes classification is a machine learning technique that can be used to predict the class of an item based on two or more categorical predictor variables. For example, you might want to predict ...

Clustering of multivariate data is a commonly used technique in ecology, and many approaches to clustering are available. The results from a clustering algorithm are uncertain, but few clustering ...

We propose new nonparametric empirical Bayes methods for high-dimensional classification. Our classifiers are designed to approximate the Bayes classifier in a hypothesized hierarchical model, where ...

Taxonomic classification of the thousands–millions of 16S rRNA gene sequences generated in microbiome studies is often achieved using a naïve Bayesian classifier (for example, the Ribosomal Database ...
