Hi Grant,

Well, the tests all run as advertised. The nature of the algorithm itself is not obvious from the tests or the comments, and so it leaves one needing to reverse-engineer that part. This might be simple if the reader already understands Bayesian classifiers, but others (like me) could use additional help. Perhaps more comments in the code and more explanations in the wiki would be a useful adjunct or else I should buy "ML for Dummies".

I also notice you use assertTrue() exclusively in your tests. AssertEquals() gives more useful error messages - what was found vs. what was expected - when it fails and you might want to consider using that method in situations where you are comparing values.

I was able to get DummyObjectCollector committed in the brief SVN window yesterday. Will you also be adding the lucene jar to the lib?

Grant,

It looks like ASF is still having SVN problems as I cannot access it. Once I can; however, I'd like to propose checking in your utils.DummyObjectCollector and removing the others. You ok with that?

Jeff
