The independence assumptions often do not have an impact on reality. Therefore they are considered as naive.
You can derive probability models by using Bayes' theorem (credited to Thomas Bayes). Depending on the nature of the probability model, you can train the Naive Bayes algorithm in a supervised learning setting.
Data mining in InfoSphere™ Warehouse is based on the maximum likelihood for parameter estimation for Naive Bayes models. The generated Naive Bayes model conforms to the Predictive Model Markup Language (PMML) standard.
Continuous fields are divided into discrete bins by the Naive Bayes algorithm
This means that a Naive Bayes model records how often a target field value appears together with a value of an input field.

The Naive Bayes classification algorithm includes the probability-threshold parameter ZeroProba. The value of the probability-threshold parameter is used if one of the above mentioned dimensions of the cube is empty. A dimension is empty, if a training-data record with the combination of input-field value and target value does not exist.
