A study conducted by [2] on employing neural network and
naive Bayesian classifier in data mining for car evaluation to
investigate the performance of Bayesian Neural Network and
Naive Bayesian classification methods using the car
evaluation dataset. Findings from the study proved the
researchers assumption that Bayesian Neural Network (BNN)
is slower, ambiguous, and more difficult to manipulate than
naive Bayesian (NB). However, BNN shows an amazing
percentage of accuracy on the dataset.
Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) an a classification
algorithm that is widely used in data mining was used in a
study conducted by [3] to compare the performance of
Decision Tree and ANN to develop prediction models; and the
comparative study of Bayesian and ANN classifiers on motion
picture [4]. Also, [5] conducted a study on evaluation of an
on-vehicle adaptive tourist service. In the study they described
the methodology and results obtained in evaluation of a
system that provides personalised tourist information onboard
cars. With a simulator and using layered sampling strategy
and statistics metrics to compare the system suggestions to the
user’s answers. Also, they analysed several dimensions of
adaptation. The car dataset used for this study as obtained
from the University of California Irvine (UCI) dataset
repository was used by [6] on modelling performance of
different classification methods.
