Anonymous Coward User ID: 360501 Canada 04/14/2008 11:46 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | [ link to www.tfot.info] A team of American scientists are developing the “StupidFilter” – an open-source filter software that will be able to detect “rampant stupidity” of web-content in written English. Similarly to the way spam recognizing software detects suspicious e-mails, the “StupidFilter” will look for pre-fed words or sign combinations that characterize stupidity, assigning particular tokens with different weights based on how often they occur in hand-picked examples of idiotic comments. The developers are using weighted Bayesian analysis along with some rules-based processing, similar to spam detection engines, in order to efficiently distinguish unacceptable messages among the submitted texts. [...] I would sure use it on youtube and here in many of my posts where I'd want constructive comments and no BS flags out of nowhere. |
