Hi, I tried to use naivebayes in package 'e1071'. when I use following parameter, only one predictor, there is an error.
m<- naiveBayes(iris[,1], iris[,5]) table(predict(m, iris[,1]), iris[,5])
Error in log(sapply(attribs, function(v) { :
Non-numeric argument to mathematical function
Either use the more convninient formula notation: m <- naiveBayes(Species ~ Sepal.Length, data = iris) table(predict(m, iris), iris$Species) or provide data.frames rather than vectors, hence: m <- naiveBayes(iris[,1,drop=FALSE], iris[,5]) table(predict(m, iris[,1,drop=FALSE]), iris[,5]) Uwe Ligges
However, when I use two predictors, there is not error any more.
m<- naiveBayes(iris[,1:2], iris[,5]) table(predict(m, iris[,1:2]), iris[,5])
