PREDICT_NAIVE_BAYES_CLASSES

Applies a Naive Bayes model on an input relation and returns the probabilities of classes.

Syntax

PREDICT_NAIVE_BAYES_CLASSES ( predictor‑columns
                USING PARAMETERS model_name='model‑name'
                                 [, key_columns='key‑columns']
                                 [, exclude_columns='excluded‑columns] 
                                 [, classes='classes'] 
                                 [, match_by_pos=match‑by‑position] )
                 OVER( [window-partition-clause] )

Arguments

predictor‑columns Comma-separated list of columns to use from the input relation, or asterisk (*) to select all columns.

Parameter Settings

Parameter name Set to…
model_name Name of the model (case-insensitive)
key_columns

Comma-separated list of predictor column names that identify the output rows. To exclude these and other predictor columns from being used for prediction, include them in the argument list for parameter exclude_columns.
exclude_columns Comma-separated list of columns from predictor‑columns to exclude from processing.
classes Comma-separated list of class labels in the model. The probability of belonging to this given class as predicted by the classifier. The values are case sensitive.
match_by_pos

Boolean value that specifies how predictor columns are matched to model features:

  • false (default): Match by name.

  • true: Match by the position of columns in the predictor columns list.

Returns

  • VARCHAR predicted column contains the class label with the highest probability.
  • Multiple FLOAT columns, where the first probability column contains the probability for the class specified in the predicted column. Other columns contain the probability of belonging to each class specified in the classes parameter.
