Title
Data classification using rough sets and naïve Bayes
Abstract
Naïve Bayesian classifier is one of the most effective and efficient classification algorithms. The elegant simplicity and apparent accuracy of naive Bayes (NB) even when the independence assumption is violated, fosters the on-going interest in the model. Rough Sets Theory has been used for different tasks in knowledge discovery and successfully applied in many real-life problems. In this study we make use of rough sets ability, in discovering attributes dependencies, to overcome the NB un-practical assumption. We propose a new algorithm called Rough-Naive Bayes (RNB) that is expected to outperform other current NB variants. RNB is based on adjusting attributes' weights based on their dependencies and contribution to the final decision. Experimental results show that RNB can achieve better performance than NB classifier.
