Google search for "bayesian"

brings up ad for job at Google

[beren]

How nerdy. A search for "bayseian" brings up a Google AdWord ad that says:

You're brilliant?
Google is hiring for a variety
of positions!

Does this mean Google thinks it is going in the direction of Bayesian learning?

well it sounds good if I knew what it meant...

Definition: a variation of the maximum likelihood classifier, based on the Bayes Law of probability. The Bayesian classifier allows the application of a priori weighting factors, representing the probabilities that pixels will be assigned to each class.

It is like a principle that can be applied to search technology. Sometimes you can go to an .edu site or big site and one of the search options will be a "bayesian search"

In other words: Geeky stuff.
