Question

What are the advantages of using a naive bayes classifier as opposed to other methods

Answer 1

Advantages of some particular algorithms. Advantages of Naive Bayes: Super simple, you're just doing a bunch of counts. If the NB conditional independence assumption actually holds, a Naive Bayes classifier will converge quicker than discriminative models like logistic regression, so you need less training data.
