------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2007-06-07 07:41 ------- No, I think that the principle that the Bayes learner is relatively insensitive to the absolute numbers of ham and spam is correct. The problem is that it is sensitive to getting non-representative samples. To the degree that tokens in the very lowest scorers are not representative of the tokens in all ham, the learner will not be accurate. Autolearning is a substitute for a mechanism in which all ham and all spam are correctly learnt. The more you get away from that ideal by being conservative with the threshold, the weaker it will make Bayes. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee.
