Comments for Greg's Blog http://greggurevich.com To be in the Tech industry, you need to have a blog, here is mine. I promise to make it as boring as the rest of them, so you might as well leave now. I am even using a cookie cutter Wordpress theme, so you know this won't be good.

These Bayesian inferencing systems could be used to filter job applications, help you decide where to eat in a strange city, or control a helper robot. The sky is the limit. Unfortunately no one knows how well an application will work until it is run on real data and the data gathering is expensive. Look at how much time and effort PG put into gathering his test data and then tweaking the algorithm, all for what amounts to a science-project scale system. It's interesting work and I see it as more of a Thomas Edison problem than an Einstein one. One has to get their hands dirty.
