Abstract

Naive Bayes is often used as a baseline in text classification because it is fast and easy to implement. Its severe assumptions make such e#ciency possible but also adversely affect the quality of its results. In this paper we propose simple, heuristic solutions to some of the problems with Naive Bayes classifiers, addressing both systemic issues as well as problems that arise because text is not actually generated according to a multinomial model.
