Laplacian Corrected Modified Naive Bayes (LCMNB) can be described as a discriminative version of naive Bayes. Specifically, it calculates the m-probability estimate of p(y|x_i) for each feature x_i and then multiplies these estimates to get the class predictions. Note that the implementation is only for nominal features.
