Naive Bayes: applications, variations and vulnerabilities: a review of literature with code snippets for implementation
Open accessAbstract
Naïve Bayes (NB) is a well-known probabilistic classification algorithm. It is a simple but efficient algorithm with a wide variety of real-world applications, ranging from product recommendations through medical diagnosis to controlling autonomous vehicles. Due to the failure of real data satisfying the assumptions of NB, there are available variations of NB to cater general data. With the unique applications for each variation of NB, they reach different levels of accuracy. This manuscript surveys the latest applications of NB and discusses its variations in different settings. Furthermore, recommendations are made regarding the applicability of NB while exploring the robustness of the algorithm. Finally, an attempt is given to discuss the pros and cons of NB algorithm and some vulnerabilities, with related computing code for implementation.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
