Abstract/Summary: This paper introduces an incremental approach to boost up the performance of traditional Naïve Bayesian classifier using only the relevant discriminating attributes. Our proposed incremental modified Naïve Bayesian classifier (IMNBC) performs better than the traditional Naïve Bayesian classifier on all the domain, on which we performed the experiments. Besides, the IMNBC also can eliminate more than half of the original attributes. Moreover, the algorithm typically learns faster, even with fewer training examples to reach high accuracy.
