1 Naïve Bayes Vibhav Gogate The University of Texas at Dallas
2 Supervised Learning of Classifiers Find f Given: Training set {(x i, y i ) i = 1 n} Find: A good approximation to f : X Y Examples: what are X and Y? Spam Detection Map to {Spam,Ham} Digit recognition Map pixels to {0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9} Stock Prediction Map new, historic prices, etc. to (the real numbers) Â Classification
3 3 Bayesian Categorization/Classification Let the set of categories be {c 1, c 2, c n } Let E be description of an instance. Determine category of E by determining for each c i P(E) can be ignored (normalization constant) Select the class with the max. probability. ) ( ) ( ) ( ) ( E P c E P c P E c P i i i ) ( ) ( ~ ) ( i i i c E P c P E c P
4 Classify s Text classification Y = {Spam,NotSpam} Classify news articles Y = {what is the topic of the article?} Classify webpages Y = {Student, professor, project, } What to use for features, X?
5 Features X are word sequence in document X i for i th word in article
6 Features for Text Classification X is sequence of words in document X (and hence P(X Y)) is huge!!! Article at least 1000 words, X={X 1,,X 1000 } X i represents i th word in document, i.e., the domain of X i is entire vocabulary, e.g., Webster Dictionary (or more), 10,000 words, etc. 10, = Atoms in Universe: We may have a problem
7 Bag of Words Model Typical additional assumption Position in document doesn t matter: P(X i =x i Y=y) = P(X k =x i Y=y) (all positions have the same distribution) Ignore the order of words Sounds really silly, but often works very well! From now on: X i = Boolean: word i is in document X = X 1 X n
8 Bag of Words Approach aardvark 0 about 2 all 2 Africa 1 apple 0 anxious 0... gas 1... oil 1 Zaire 0
9 Bayesian Categorization P(y 1 X) ~ P(y i )P(X y i ) Need to know: Priors: P(y i ) Conditionals: P(X y i ) P(y i ) are easily estimated from data. If n i of the examples in D are in y i, then P(y i ) = n i / D Conditionals: X = X 1 X n Estimate P(X 1 X n y i ) Too many possible instances to estimate! (exponential in n) Even with bag of words assumption! 9
10 Need to Simplify Somehow Too many probabilities P(x 1 x 2 x 3 y i ) P(x 1 x 2 x 3 spam) P(x 1 x 2 x 3 spam) P(x 1 x 2 x 3 spam). P( x 1 x 2 x 3 spam) Can we assume some are the same? P(x 1 x 2 y i )=P(x 1 y i ) P(x 2 y i ) 10
11 Conditional Independence X is conditionally independent of Y given Z, if the probability distribution for X is independent of the value of Y, given the value of Z e.g., Equivalent to:
12 Naïve Bayes Naïve Bayes assumption: Features are independent given class: More generally: How many parameters now? Suppose X is composed of n binary features
13 The Naïve Bayes Classifier Given: Prior P(Y) Y n conditionally independent features X given the class Y For each X i, we have likelihood P(X i Y) X 1 X 2 X n Decision rule:
14 MLE for the parameters of NB Given dataset, count occurrences for all pairs Count(X i =x i,y=y)----- How many pairs? MLE for discrete NB, simply: Prior: Likelihood:
15 NAÏVE BAYES CALCULATIONS
16 Subtleties of NB Classifier: #1 Violating the NB Assumption Usually, features are not conditionally independent: The naïve Bayes assumption is often violated, yet it performs surprisingly well in many cases. Plausible reason: Only need the probability of the correct class to be the largest! Example: two-way classification; just need to figure out the correct side of 0.5 and not the actual probability (0.51 is the same as 0.99).
17 Subtleties of NB Classifier: #2 Insufficient Training Data What if you never see a training instance where X1=a and Y=b You never saw, Y=Spam, X1={Enlargement} P(X1=Enlargement Y=Spam)=0 Thus no matter what values X2, X3,.,Xn take: P(X1=Enlargement, X2=a2,,Xn=an Y=Spam)=0 Why?
18 For Binary Features: We already know the answer! MAP: use most likely parameter Beta prior equivalent to extra observations for each feature As N 1, prior is forgotten But, for small sample size, prior is important!
19 That s Great for Binomial Works for Spam / Ham What about multiple classes Eg, given a wikipedia page, predicting type 19
20 Multinomials: Laplace Smoothing Laplace s estimate: Pretend you saw every outcome k extra times H H T What s Laplace with k = 0? k is the strength of the prior Can derive this as a MAP estimate for multinomial with Dirichlet priors Laplace for conditionals: Smooth each condition independently:
21 Probabilities: Important Detail! P(spam X 1 X n ) = P(spam X i ) i Any more potential problems here? We are multiplying lots of small numbers Danger of underflow! = 7 E -18 Solution? Use logs and add! p 1 * p 2 = e log(p1)+log(p2) Always keep in log form
22 NB for Text Classification: Learning Learning phase: P(Y m ) and P(X i Y m )
23 NB for Text Classification: Classification Given a new document having length L
24 Example: (Borrowed from Dan Jurafsky)
25 Bayesian Learning What if Features are Continuous? Eg., Character Recognition: X i is i th pixel Prior Posterior P(Y X) P(X Y) P(Y) Data Likelihood
26 Bayesian Learning What if Features are Continuous? Eg., Character Recognition: X i is i th pixel P(X i =x Y=y k ) = N( ik, ik ) P(Y X) P(X Y) P(Y) N( ik, ik ) =
27 P(X i =x Y=y k ) = N( ik, ik ) Gaussian Naïve Bayes Sometimes Assume Variance is independent of Y (i.e., i ), or independent of X i (i.e., k ) or both (i.e., ) P(Y X) P(X Y) P(Y) N( ik, ik ) =
