Prior P(class 1)

Naive Bayes models each class as a probability distribution and assigns a new point to whichever class makes it most likely, weighted by the prior. Where the weighted curves cross is the decision boundary. It is fast, simple, and famously strong on text. Educational tool.

Governing equation

P (C ∣ x) \propto P (C) N (x; μ_{C}, 1), P (C_{1}) = 0.5, \hat{C} = ar g C max

Reading this result: Well-separated classes with a balanced prior put the boundary right between the means, exactly where the two weighted curves cross.
