sklearn.naive_bayes.ComplementNB

class sklearn.naive_bayes.ComplementNB(*, alpha=1.0, force_alpha='warn', fit_prior=True, class_prior=None, norm=False)[source]

The Complement Naive Bayes classifier described in Rennie et al. (2003).

The Complement Naive Bayes classifier was designed to correct the “severe assumptions” made by the standard Multinomial Naive Bayes classifier. It is particularly suited for imbalanced data sets.

Read more in the User Guide.

New in version 0.20.

Parameters:
alphafloat or array-like of shape (n_features,), default=1.0

Additive (Laplace/Lidstone) smoothing parameter (set alpha=0 and force_alpha=True, for no smoothing).

force_alphabool, default=False

If False and alpha is less than 1e-10, it will set alpha to 1e-10. If True, alpha will remain unchanged. This may cause numerical errors if alpha is too close to 0.

New in version 1.2.

Deprecated since version 1.2: The default value of force_alpha will change to True in v1.4.

fit_priorbool, default=True

Only used in edge case with a single class in the training set.

class_priorarray-like of shape (n_classes,), default=None

Prior probabilities of the classes. Not used.

normbool, default=False

Whether or not a second normalization of the weights is performed. The default behavior mirrors the implementations found in Mahout and Weka, which do not follow the full algorithm described in Table 9 of the paper.

Attributes:
class_count_ndarray of shape (n_classes,)

Number of samples encountered for each class during fitting. This value is weighted by the sample weight when provided.

class_log_prior_ndarray of shape (n_classes,)

Number of features seen during fit.

New in version 0.24.

feature_names_in_ndarray of shape (n_features_in_,)

Names of features seen during fit. Defined only when X has feature names that are all strings.

New in version 1.0.

Returns:
paramsdict

Parameter names mapped to their values.

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 and n_features is the number of features.

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.

Perform classification on an array of test vectors X.

Parameters:
Xarray-like of shape (n_samples, n_features)

The input samples.

Returns:
Cndarray of shape (n_samples,)

Predicted target values for X.

predict_joint_log_proba(X)[source]

Return joint log probability estimates for the test vector X.

For each row x of X and class y, the joint log probability is given by log P(x, y) = log P(y) + log P(x|y), where log P(y) is the class prior probability and log P(x|y) is the class-conditional probability.

Parameters:
Xarray-like of shape (n_samples, n_features)

The input samples.

Returns:
Cndarray of shape (n_samples, n_classes)

Returns the joint 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_.

set_fit_request(*, sample_weight: Union[bool, None, str] = '$UNCHANGED$') → ComplementNB[source]

Request metadata passed to the fit method.

Note that this method is only relevant if enable_metadata_routing=True (see sklearn.set_config). Please see User Guide on how the routing mechanism works.

The options for each parameter are:

  • True: metadata is requested, and passed to fit if provided. The request is ignored if metadata is not provided.

  • False: metadata is not requested and the meta-estimator will not pass it to fit.

  • None: metadata is not requested, and the meta-estimator will raise an error if the user provides it.

  • str: metadata should be passed to the meta-estimator with this given alias instead of the original name.

The default (sklearn.utils.metadata_routing.UNCHANGED) retains the existing request. This allows you to change the request for some parameters and not others.

New in version 1.3.

Note

This method is only relevant if this estimator is used as a sub-estimator of a meta-estimator, e.g. used inside a Pipeline. Otherwise it has no effect.

Parameters:

Metadata routing for sample_weight parameter in fit.

Returns:
selfobject

The updated object.

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.
