Bayes Classification

The document discusses Bayesian Classification as a supervised learning and statistical method for classification, based on Bayes' Theorem. It explains the naive Bayesian classifier, which assumes class conditional independence to simplify calculations of probabilities for classification tasks. An example is provided to illustrate how to predict class labels using training data and conditional probabilities.
