What is Naïve Bayes?

Naïve Bayes

Bayes' theorem "describes the probability of an event, based on prior knowledge of conditions that might be related to the event".  "The theorem expresses how a degree of belief, expressed as a probability, should rationally change to account for the availability of related evidence."

Thus, Bayes' theorem details ways of finding a conditional probability when certain other probabilities are known.
