Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The conditional independence assumption of naive Bayes essentially ignores attribute dependencies and is often violated. On the other hand, although a Bayesian network can represent arbitrary attribute dependencies, learning an optimal Bayesian network from data is intractable. The main reason is that learning the optimal structure of a Bayesian network is extremely time consuming. Thus, a Bayesian model without structure learning is desirable. In this paper, we propose a novel model, called hidden naive Bayes (HNB). In an HNB, a hidden parent is created for each attribute which combines the influences from all other attributes. We present an approach to creating hidden parents using the average of weighted one-dependence estimators. HNB inherits the structural simplicity of naive Bayes and can be easily learned without structure learning. We propose an algorithm for learning HNB based on conditional mutual information. We experimentally test HNB in terms of classification accuracy, using the 36 UCI data sets recommended by Weka (Witten & Frank 2000), and compare it to naive Bayes (Langley, Iba, & Thomas 1992), C4.5 (Quinlan 1993), SBC (Langley & Sage 1994), NBTree (Kohavi 1996), CL-TAN (Friedman, Geiger, & Goldszmidt 1997), and AODE (Webb, Boughton, & Wang 2005). The experimental results show that HNB outperforms naive Bayes, C4.5, SBC, NBTree, and CL-TAN, and is competitive with AODE.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
