RE: [Classifier4j-devel] Training and Classifying

[Neil G. <np...@nt...>]

Hi Nick,

The problem I am having is as follows:

I wish to classify an unknown article against trained data, which is in
the "word_probability" table.

So, to do this I must use BayesianClassifier as follows:

	1. Create an instance of JDBCWordsDataSource
	2. Create a new instance of BayesianClassifier, passing the
JDBCWordsDataSource to the constructor
	3. Call BayesianClassifier.classify(String)

However, by creating an instance of JDBCWordsDataSource (1), the
constructor for this method creates a new table. 
------ which I do not want because I will have to delete the table
containing all my trained data.

What I want is to be able to retrieve my trained data (in a
JDBCWordsDataSource??), then classify the new article against this data.

How can I do this?  I would very much appreciate some sample code.

Regards

Nigel
