 * Class for a Naive Bayes classifier using estimator classes. Numeric estimator precision values are chosen based on analysis of the  training data. For this reason, the classifier is not an UpdateableClassifier (which in typical usage are initialized with zero training instances) -- if you need the UpdateableClassifier functionality, use the NaiveBayesUpdateable classifier. The NaiveBayesUpdateable classifier will  use a default precision of 0.1 for numeric attributes when buildClassifier is called with zero training instances.<br/>
