[0]Nuclear Elephant writes "The authors of two spam filters, [1]CRM114
and [2]DSPAM, announced [3]recently that their filters have achieved
accuracy rates ten times better than a human is capable of. Based on [4]a
study by Bill Yerazunis of CRM114, the average human is only 99.84%
accurate. Both filters are reporting to have reached accuracy levels
between 99.983% and 99.984% (1 misclassification in 6250 messages) using
completely different approaches (CRM114 touts [5]Markovan, while DSPAM
implements a Dolby-type [3]noise reduction algorithm called Dobly). If
you're looking for a way to rid spam from your inbox, roll on over to one
of these authors' websites."
