Dear all,

     I see that I can set an alpha(smoothing parameter) to the Naive Bayes
classifier in apache mahout. The default value of alpha has been set to 1
and is an optional parameter. How does this alpha value affect the
classification results, can I just ignore it and use the default value or
should I change it for optimal classification?
