Hello Fernando, The naive bayes approach makes the assumption that your features are independent, if your featurea have a high correlation, naive bayes won't be a good choice. I would advice you to try the neural networks (mlp), it can get a better decision surface than logistic regression... Be

Hi, Fernando, to get a better understanding of correlation, you could think of features as events in probability, then if the probability of the intersection is high, the events are high correlated... I agree with Ted. But usually, naive bayes works well with text classification when you have a
