Dear all,

             I am performing a sentiment analysis using the naive bayes
classifier on apache mahout. Every time when I get the result, I get a
category and a score corresponding to the score.

             Can some one here enlighten me on the score? Like what is the
maximum score for a given category(I have two categories - positive and
negative). So based on the score can I categorize them as very
positive,very negative etc. Any input regarding the same would be helpful.
Thank you.
