This project aims to create a Gaussian Naive Bayes classifier in Android and use it on the famous Iris dataset. Gaussian Naive Bayes is a different version of commonly used Naive Bayes classifier, as it deals with numerical features.
We assume that each numerical feature in our dataset, follows a Gaussian distribution, with the mean and standard deviation calculated from that feature itself.
The app uses Opencsv to parse the dataset in CSV format ( from the app's assets
folder ).
You may use your dataset in the app. Keep the following points in mind, so as to provide a clean dataset to the algorithm,
- The dataset should be in the CSV format and should be placed in the app's
assets
folder. - The first row should contain only names of the columns. Like in this case of the Iris dataset, the first row contains
sepal_length,sepal_width,petal_length,petal_width,species
. - The last column in the CSV file should correspond to the labels column, just as we have the
species
column in the Iris dataset. - The labels column should contain all labels as Strings only. Like in the Iris dataset, the
species
colun contains three distinct Strings ( classes ),setosa, versicolor, virginica
. All other columns, except the labels column should contain only numerical features. ( Just as the Iris dataset hassepal_length,sepal_width,petal_length,petal_width
columns ). - Clean the dataset if it has null values in any of the columns. Null/blank values in any of the columns could cause an error.
Follow the same format as the Iris dataset.
