Implement a Naive Bayes Classifier in Python and Scikit-learn to Categorize Text

We’ll use this probabilistic classifier to classify text into different news groups.

There are several types of Naive Bayes classifiers in scikit-learn. We will be using the Multinomial Naive Bayes model, which is appropriate for text classification. More can be found at Scikit-learn.

We'll also look at how to visualize the confusion matrix using pandas_ml.

To install pandas_ml, type:

$ pip install pandas_ml

into your terminal, or install it with your installer of choice.
