Improving classification performance using unlabeled data: Naive Bayesian case
In many applications, an enormous amount of unlabeled data is available with little cost. Therefore, it is natural to ask whether we can take advantage of these unlabeled data in classification learning. In this paper, we analyzed the role of unlabeled data in the context of naive Bayesian learning. Experimental results show that including unlabeled data as part of training data can significantly improve the performance of classification accuracy.
