  • I have tried the Orange Framework for Naive Bayesian classification.

    • The methods are extremely unintuitive, and the documentation is extremely unorganized. Does anyone here have another framework to recommend?
    • I use mostly NaiveBayesian for now.

  • I was thinking of using nltk's NaiveClassification but then they don't think they can handle continuous variables.

What are my options?

The scikit-learn has an implementation of Gaussian naive Bayesian classifier. In general, the goal of this library is to provide a good trade off between code that is easy to read and use, and efficiency. Hopefully it should be a good library to learn of the algorithms work.
