This document discusses Bayesian probability and its application to text classification. It explains how to calculate the probability P(C|D) that a document D belongs to a class C using Bayes' theorem. Key terms like bag-of-words, term frequency, and maximum likelihood estimation are also introduced. Several examples are provided to illustrate how to classify documents into different topics based on word probabilities.
