BarCampMilwaukee is next weekend, Oct 13-14, 2007
Let's talk about Bayesian classifiers. They're everywhere. They filter your spam, recommend new links, and categorize web pages. Why are they so omnipresent? Because the math behind them is simple to understand, and simple to implement. So simple, in fact, that we'll do it in an hour.
I'll go over Bayes' theorem and how it relates to classification. I'll walk you through creating basic tokenization, training, and testing functions. Then we'll categorize stuff. My implementation language will be Perl, but you're welcome to use whatever language you'd like.
I'm going to try to attend Sunday during the day. I hope to see you there.
