.CategoricalNB¶
- class sklearn.naive_bayes.CategoricalNB(*, alpha=1.0, fit_prior=True, class_prior=None, min_categories=None)[source]¶
Naive Bayes classifier for categorical features.
The categorical Naive Bayes classifier is suitable for classification with discrete features that are categorically distributed. The categories of each feature are drawn from a categorical distribution.

- Parameters:
- alphafloat, default=1.0
Additive (Laplace/Lidstone) smoothing parameter (0 for no smoothing).

Prior probabilities of the classes. If specified, the priors are not adjusted according to the data.
- min_categoriesint or array-like of shape (n_features,), default=None

integer: Sets the minimum number of categories per feature to
n_categories

Methods
fit
(X, y[, sample_weight])Fit Naive Bayes classifier according to X, y.
get_params
([deep])Get parameters for this estimator.
partial_fit
(X, y[, classes, sample_weight])Incremental fit on a batch of samples.
predict
(X)Perform classification on an array of test vectors X.
Return log-probability estimates for the test vector X.
Return probability estimates for the test vector X.
score
(X, y[, sample_weight])Return the mean accuracy on the given test data and labels.
set_params
(**params)Set the parameters of this estimator.
- fit(X, y, sample_weight=None)[source]¶
Fit Naive Bayes classifier according to X, y.
- Parameters:
- X{array-like, sparse matrix} of shape (n_samples, n_features)
Training vectors, where
n_samples
is the number of samples andn_features
is the number of features. Here, each feature of X is assumed to be from a different categorical distribution. It is further assumed that all categories of each feature are represented by the numbers 0, …, n - 1, where n refers to the total number of categories for the given feature. This can, for instance, be achieved with the help of OrdinalEncoder.- yarray-like of shape (n_samples,)
Target values.
- sample_weightarray-like of shape (n_samples,), default=None
Weights applied to individual samples (1. for unweighted).
- Returns:
- selfobject
Returns the instance itself.
- get_params(deep=True)[source]¶
Get parameters for this estimator.
- Parameters:
- deepbool, default=True
If True, will return the parameters for this estimator and contained subobjects that are estimators.
- Returns:
- paramsdict
Parameter names mapped to their values.
- property n_features_¶
DEPRECATED: Attribute
n_features_
was deprecated in version 1.0 and will be removed in 1.2. Usen_features_in_
instead.
- partial_fit(X, y, classes=None, sample_weight=None)[source]¶
Incremental fit on a batch of samples.
This method is expected to be called several times consecutively on different chunks of a dataset so as to implement out-of-core or online learning.
This is especially useful when the whole dataset is too big to fit in memory at once.
This method has some performance overhead hence it is better to call partial_fit on chunks of data that are as large as possible (as long as fitting in the memory budget) to hide the overhead.
- Parameters:
- X{array-like, sparse matrix} of shape (n_samples, n_features)
Training vectors, where
n_samples
is the number of samples andn_features
is the number of features. Here, each feature of X is assumed to be from a different categorical distribution. It is further assumed that all categories of each feature are represented by the numbers 0, …, n - 1, where n refers to the total number of categories for the given feature. This can, for instance, be achieved with the help of OrdinalEncoder.- yarray-like of shape (n_samples,)
Target values.
- classesarray-like of shape (n_classes,), default=None
List of all the classes that can possibly appear in the y vector.
Must be provided at the first call to partial_fit, can be omitted in subsequent calls.
- sample_weightarray-like of shape (n_samples,), default=None
Weights applied to individual samples (1. for unweighted).
- Returns:
- selfobject
Returns the instance itself.
- predict(X)[source]¶
Perform classification on an array of test vectors X.
- Parameters:

Return log-probability estimates for the test vector X.
- Parameters:
- Xarray-like of shape (n_samples, n_features)
The input samples.
- Returns:
- Carray-like of shape (n_samples, n_classes)
Returns the log-probability of the samples for each class in the model. The columns correspond to the classes in sorted order, as they appear in the attribute classes_.
- predict_proba(X)[source]¶
Return probability estimates for the test vector X.
- Parameters:
- Xarray-like of shape (n_samples, n_features)
The input samples.
- Returns:
- Carray-like of shape (n_samples, n_classes)
Returns the probability of the samples for each class in the model. The columns correspond to the classes in sorted order, as they appear in the attribute classes_.
- score(X, y, sample_weight=None)[source]¶
Return the mean accuracy on the given test data and labels.
In multi-label classification, this is the subset accuracy which is a harsh metric since you require for each sample that each label set be correctly predicted.
- Parameters:
- Xarray-like of shape (n_samples, n_features)
Test samples.
- yarray-like of shape (n_samples,) or (n_samples, n_outputs)
True labels for

self.predict(X)
wrt.y
.
- set_params(**params)[source]¶
Set the parameters of this estimator.
The method works on simple estimators as well as on nested objects (such as
Pipeline
). The latter have parameters of the form<component>__<parameter>
so that it’s possible to update each component of a nested object.- Parameters:
- **paramsdict
Estimator parameters.
- Returns:
- selfestimator instance
Estimator instance.
