Well, if you have three values, each being either true or false, well, just
pipe those values through the logical or function, and you're done.

Yes, this sounds silly, doesn't it?  Every user of moses has built some
large, complex system around it to feed it tables of data and then to
process other data using these outputs. Unfortunately, all of these are
proprietary systems, but it occurs to me that maybe one of these could be
open-sourced. I'll have to ask. The one I know best can take structured and
unstructured data from a variety of sources, filter and process these into
training-data sets, collect up a number of best-fit moses colbo results,
average them together into an ensemble, and then output that as a
data-processing pipeline: you feed it tables (or individual lines from
tables) and it makes predictions based on that input.  Practical experience
shows that it is more-or-less comparable to "decision forests" (a decision
forest being an ensemble of decision trees; a decision tree being
kind-of-like a combo program but obtained from different algorithms).  Both
moses and decision-forests max out at a certain level of accuracy, beyond
with it takes an ungodly amount of training time to improve on.  There was
a nascent effort to apply deep learning techniques, but it foundered on a
lack of funding.

I'm not sure I answered your question, but that's what I've got.
