Preparation
Prepare the Eggplant: Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).Brush the eggplant slices (1 medium eggplant) lightly with melted butter (1 Tbsp) and season with salt. Arrange on a baking sheet and roast for 20 minutes, flipping halfway, until tender and lightly browned.
Cook the Beef Mixture: While the eggplant roasts, melt butter (1 Tbsp) in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Add the diced red onion (¼ cup) and cook until translucent, about 3–4 minutes. Add the minced garlic (2 cloves) and cook for another 30 seconds. Add the ground beef (8 oz) and cook, breaking it up, until browned. Stir in dried oregano (1 tsp), ground cinnamon (½ tsp), paprika (½ tsp), sea salt (½ tsp), and black pepper (¼ tsp). Simmer for a few minutes to let the flavors blend. Remove from heat.
Prepare the Creamy Topping: In a small bowl, whisk together the egg (1 large), Greek yogurt (¼ cup), grated Parmesan cheese (2 Tbsp), nutmeg (⅛ tsp), and a pinch of sea salt.
Assemble the Skillet: Layer the roasted eggplant slices over the beef mixture in the skillet in a baking dish. Spread the creamy topping evenly over the eggplant and beef layers.
Bake: Place the skillet under the broiler for 3–5 minutes until the topping is set and lightly golden. Remove from oven and drizzle with olive oil (1 Tbsp) before serving.
The article walks through a step-by-step example of how to apply Bayes’ Theorem using a Naïve Bayes classifier. It explains how to calculate the prior probability, marginal likelihood (evidence), likelihood, and finally the posterior probability, using a visual classification scenario (e.g., data points within a drawn circle) to illustrate each component.
