java.lang.Objectweka.classifiers.Classifier
weka.classifiers.bayes.AODE
public class AODE
AODE achieves highly accurate classification by averaging over all of a small space of alternative naive-Bayes-like models that have weaker (and hence less detrimental) independence assumptions than naive Bayes. The resulting algorithm is computationally efficient while delivering highly accurate classification on many learning tasks.
For more information, see

Can use an m-estimate for smoothing base probability estimates in place of the Laplace correction (via option -M).
Default frequency limit set to 1.
