fastNaiveBayes - Extremely Fast Implementation of a Naive Bayes Classifier
This is an extremely fast implementation of a Naive Bayes
classifier. This package is currently the only package that
supports a Bernoulli distribution, a Multinomial distribution,
and a Gaussian distribution, making it suitable for both binary
features, frequency counts, and numerical features. Another
feature is the support of a mix of different event models. Only
numerical variables are allowed, however, categorical variables
can be transformed into dummies and used with the Bernoulli
distribution. The implementation is largely based on the paper
"A comparison of event models for Naive Bayes anti-spam e-mail
filtering" written by K.M. Schneider (2003)
