The TANBayes class implements an Integer-Based TAN 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. stored in Conditional Probability Tables (CPTs).
The classifier is TAN allowing each xj to utilize information from its x-parant.
