DATASET WEIGHTING FEATURES USING GAIN RATIO TO IMPROVE METHOD ACCURACY NAÏVE BAYESIAN CLASSIFICATION

The Naïve Bayes method is proven to have a high speed when applied to large datasets, but the Naïve Bayes method has weaknesses when selecting attributes because Naïve Bayes is a statistical classification method that is only based on the Bayes theorem so that it can only be used to predict the probability of the class membership of a class independently. Independent without being able to do the selection of attributes that have a high correlation and correlation between one attribute with other attributes so that it can affect the value of accuracy. Naïve Bayesian Weight has been able to provide better accuracy than conventional Naïve Bayesian. Where an increase in the highest accuracy value obtained from the Water Quality dataset is equal to 88.57% in the Weight Naïve Bayesian classification model, while the lowest accuracy value is obtained from the Haberman dataset which is 78.95% in the conventional Naïve Bayesian classification model. The increase in accuracy of the Weight Naïve Bayesian classification model in the Water Quality dataset is 2.9%. While the increase in accuracy value in the Haberman dataset is 1.8%. If done the average accuracy of each dataset using the Weight Naïve Bayesian classification model is 2.35%. Based on the testing that has been done on all test data, it can be said that the Weight Naïve Bayesian classification model can provide better accuracy values than those produced by the conventional Naïve Bayesian classification model.
