class NaiveBayes0 extends BayesClassifier

The NaiveBayes class implements an Integer-Based Naive Bayes Classifier, which is a commonly used such classifier for discrete input data. The classifier is trained using a data matrix 'x' and a classification vector 'y'. Each data vector in the matrix is classified into one of 'k' classes numbered 0, ..., k-1. Prior probabilities are calculated based on the population of each class in the training-set. Relative posterior probabilities are computed by multiplying these by values computed using conditional probabilities. The classifier is naive, because it assumes feature independence and therefore simply multiplies the conditional probabilities.

This classifier uses the standard cross-validation technique. -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
