Semi-supervised Naive Bayes/Evidence
Method evidence record

Semi-supervised Naive Bayes

Semi-supervised Naive Bayes extends the classic Naive Bayes generative model to exploit large pools of unlabeled data alongside a small labeled set. Using Expectation-Maximization, it iteratively infers soft class assignments for unlabeled examples and re-estimates class and feature parameters, yielding substantially better classifiers when labeled examples are scarce.
