GNU LESSER GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
Version 2.1, February 1999
Copyright (C) 1991, 1999 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
51 Franklin St, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301 USA
Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
[This is the first released version of the Lesser GPL. It also counts
as the successor of the GNU Library Public License, version 2, hence
the version number 2.1.]
Preamble
The licenses for most software are designed to take away your
freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public
Licenses are intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change
free software--to make sure the software is free for all its users.
This license, the Lesser General Public License, applies to some
specially designated software packages--typically libraries--of the
Free Software Foundation and other authors who decide to use it. You
can use it too, but we suggest you first think carefully about whether
this license or the ordinary General Public License is the better
strategy to use in any particular case, based on the explanations below.
When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom of use,
not price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that
you have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge
for this service if you wish); that you receive source code or can get
it if you want it; that you can change the software and use pieces of
it in new free programs; and that you are informed that you can do
these things.
To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid
distributors to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender these
rights. These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for
you if you distribute copies of the library or if you modify it.
For example, if you distribute copies of the library, whether gratis
or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that we gave
you. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the source
code. If you link other code with the library, you must provide
complete object files to the recipients, so that they can relink them
with the library after making changes to the library and recompiling
it. And you must show them these terms so they know their rights.
We protect your rights with a two-step method: (1) we copyright the
library, and (2) we offer you this license, which gives you legal
permission to copy, distribute and/or modify the library.
To protect each distributor, we want to make it very clear that
there is no warranty for the free library. Also, if the library is
modified by someone else and passed on, the recipients should know
that what they have is not the original version, so that the original
author's reputation will not be affected by problems that might be
introduced by others.
Finally, software patents pose a constant threat to the existence of
any free program. We wish to make sure that a company cannot
effectively restrict the users of a free program by obtaining a
restrictive license from a patent holder. Therefore, we insist that
any patent license obtained for a version of the library must be
consistent with the full freedom of use specified in this license.
Most GNU software, including some libraries, is covered by the
ordinary GNU General Public License. This license, the GNU Lesser
General Public License, applies to certain designated libraries, and
is quite different from the ordinary General Public License. We use
this license for certain libraries in order to permit linking those
libraries into non-free programs.
When a program is linked with a library, whether statically or using
a shared library, the combination of the two is legally speaking a
combined work, a derivative of the original library. The ordinary
General Public License therefore permits such linking only if the
entire combination fits its criteria of freedom. The Lesser General
Public License permits more lax criteria for linking other code with
the library.
We call this license the "Lesser" General Public License because it
does Less to protect the user's freedom than the ordinary General
Public License. It also provides other free software developers Less
of an advantage over competing non-free programs. These disadvantages
are the reason we use the ordinary General Public License for many
libraries. However, the Lesser license provides advantages in certain
special circumstances.
For example, on rare occasions, there may be a special need to
encourage the widest possible use of a certain library, so that it becomes
a de-facto standard. To achieve this, non-free programs must be
allowed to use the library. A more frequent case is that a free
library does the same job as widely used non-free libraries. In this
case, there is little to gain by limiting the free library to free
software only, so we use the Lesser General Public License.
In other cases, permission to use a particular library in non-free
programs enables a greater number of people to use a large body of
free software. For example, permission to use the GNU C Library in
non-free programs enables many more people to use the whole GNU
operating system, as well as its variant, the GNU/Linux operating
system.
Although the Lesser General Public License is Less protective of the
users' freedom, it does ensure that the user of a program that is
linked with the Library has the freedom and the wherewithal to run
that program using a modified version of the Library.
The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
modification follow. Pay close attention to the difference between a
"work based on the library" and a "work that uses the library". The
former contains code derived from the library, whereas the latter must
be combined with the library in order to run.
GNU LESSER GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION
0. This License Agreement applies to any software library or other
program which contains a notice placed by the copyright holder or
other authorized party saying it may be distributed under the terms of
this Lesser General Public License (also called "this License").
Each licensee is addressed as "you".
A "library" means a collection of software functions and/or data
prepared so as to be conveniently linked with application programs
(which use some of those functions and data) to form executables.
The "Library", below, refers to any such software library or work
which has been distributed under these terms. A "work based on the
Library" means either the Library or any derivative work under
copyright law: that is to say, a work containing the Library or a
portion of it, either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated
straightforwardly into another language. (Hereinafter, translation is
included without limitation in the term "modification".)
"Source code" for a work means the preferred form of the work for
making modifications to it. For a library, complete source code means
all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any associated
interface definition files, plus the scripts used to control compilation
and installation of the library.
Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not
covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of
running a program using the Library is not restricted, and output from
such a program is covered only if its contents constitute a work based
on the Library (independent of the use of the Library in a tool for
writing it). Whether that is true depends on what the Library does
and what the program that uses the Library does.
1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Library's
complete source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that
you conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an
appropriate copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact
all the notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any
warranty; and distribute a copy of this License along with the
Library.
You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy,
and you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a
fee.
2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Library or any portion
of it, thus forming a work based on the Library, and copy and
distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1
above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
a) The modified work must itself be a software library.
b) You must cause the files modified to carry prominent notices
stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.
c) You must cause the whole of the work to be licensed at no
charge to all third parties under the terms of this License.
d) If a facility in the modified Library refers to a function or a
table of data to be supplied by an application program that uses
the facility, other than as an argument passed when the facility
is invoked, then you must make a good faith effort to ensure that,
in the event an application does not supply such function or
table, the facility still operates, and performs whatever part of
its purpose remains meaningful.
(For example, a function in a library to compute square roots has
a purpose that is entirely well-defined independent of the
application. Therefore, Subsection 2d requires that any
application-supplied function or table used by this function must
be optional: if the application does not supply it, the square
root function must still compute square roots.)
These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If
identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Library,
and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in
themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those
sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you
distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based
on the Library, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of
this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the
entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote
it.
Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest
your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to
exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or
collective works based on the Library.
In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Library
with the Library (or with a work based on the Library) on a volume of
a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under
the scope of this License.
3. You may opt to apply the terms of the ordinary GNU General Public
License instead of this License to a given copy of the Library. To do
this, you must alter all the notices that refer to this License, so
that they refer to the ordinary GNU General Public License, version 2,
instead of to this License. (If a newer version than version 2 of the
ordinary GNU General Public License has appeared, then you can specify
that version instead if you wish.) Do not make any other change in
these notices.
Once this change is made in a given copy, it is irreversible for
that copy, so the ordinary GNU General Public License applies to all
subsequent copies and derivative works made from that copy.
This option is useful when you wish to copy part of the code of
the Library into a program that is not a library.
4. You may copy and distribute the Library (or a portion or
derivative of it, under Section 2) in object code or executable form
under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you accompany
it with the complete corresponding machine-readable source code, which
must be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a
medium customarily used for software interchange.
If distribution of object code is made by offering access to copy
from a designated place, then offering equivalent access to copy the
source code from the same place satisfies the requirement to
distribute the source code, even though third parties are not
compelled to copy the source along with the object code.
5. A program that contains no derivative of any portion of the
Library, but is designed to work with the Library by being compiled or
linked with it, is called a "work that uses the Library". Such a
work, in isolation, is not a derivative work of the Library, and
therefore falls outside the scope of this License.
However, linking a "work that uses the Library" with the Library
creates an executable that is a derivative of the Library (because it
contains portions of the Library), rather than a "work that uses the
library". The executable is therefore covered by this License.
Section 6 states terms for distribution of such executables.
When a "work that uses the Library" uses material from a header file
that is part of the Library, the object code for the work may be a
derivative work of the Library even though the source code is not.
Whether this is true is especially significant if the work can be
linked without the Library, or if the work is itself a library. The
threshold for this to be true is not precisely defined by law.
If such an object file uses only numerical parameters, data
structure layouts and accessors, and small macros and small inline
functions (ten lines or less in length), then the use of the object
file is unrestricted, regardless of whether it is legally a derivative
work. (Executables containing this object code plus portions of the
Library will still fall under Section 6.)
Otherwise, if the work is a derivative of the Library, you may
distribute the object code for the work under the terms of Section 6.
Any executables containing that work also fall under Section 6,
whether or not they are linked directly with the Library itself.
6. As an exception to the Sections above, you may also combine or
link a "work that uses the Library" with the Library to produce a
work containing portions of the Library, and distribute that work
under terms of your choice, provided that the terms permit
modification of the work for the customer's own use and reverse
engineering for debugging such modifications.
You must give prominent notice with each copy of the work that the
Library is used in it and that the Library and its use are covered by
this License. You must supply a copy of this License. If the work
during execution displays copyright notices, you must include the
copyright notice for the Library among them, as well as a reference
directing the user to the copy of this License. Also, you must do one
of these things:
a) Accompany the work with the complete corresponding
machine-readable source code for the Library including whatever
changes were used in the work (which must be distributed under
Sections 1 and 2 above); and, if the work is an executable linked
with the Library, with the complete machine-readable "work that
uses the Library", as object code and/or source code, so that the
user can modify the Library and then relink to produce a modified
executable containing the modified Library. (It is understood
that the user who changes the contents of definitions files in the
Library will not necessarily be able to recompile the application
to use the modified definitions.)
b) Use a suitable shared library mechanism for linking with the
Library. A suitable mechanism is one that (1) uses at run time a
copy of the library already present on the user's computer system,
rather than copying library functions into the executable, and (2)
will operate properly with a modified version of the library, if
the user installs one, as long as the modified version is
interface-compatible with the version that the work was made with.
c) Accompany the work with a written offer, valid for at
least three years, to give the same user the materials
specified in Subsection 6a, above, for a charge no more
than the cost of performing this distribution.
d) If distribution of the work is made by offering access to copy
from a designated place, offer equivalent access to copy the above
specified materials from the same place.
e) Verify that the user has already received a copy of these
materials or that you have already sent this user a copy.
For an executable, the required form of the "work that uses the
Library" must include any data and utility programs needed for
reproducing the executable from it. However, as a special exception,
the materials to be distributed need not include anything that is
normally distributed (in either source or binary form) with the major
components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the operating system on
which the executable runs, unless that component itself accompanies
the executable.
It may happen that this requirement contradicts the license
restrictions of other proprietary libraries that do not normally
accompany the operating system. Such a contradiction means you cannot
use both them and the Library together in an executable that you
distribute.
7. You may place library facilities that are a work based on the
Library side-by-side in a single library together with other library
facilities not covered by this License, and distribute such a combined
library, provided that the separate distribution of the work based on
the Library and of the other library facilities is otherwise
permitted, and provided that you do these two things:
a) Accompany the combined library with a copy of the same work
based on the Library, uncombined with any other library
facilities. This must be distributed under the terms of the
Sections above.
b) Give prominent notice with the combined library of the fact
that part of it is a work based on the Library, and explaining
where to find the accompanying uncombined form of the same work.
8. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or distribute
the Library except as expressly provided under this License. Any
attempt otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or
distribute the Library is void, and will automatically terminate your
rights under this License. However, parties who have received copies,
or rights, from you under this License will not have their licenses
terminated so long as such parties remain in full compliance.
9. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not
signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or
distribute the Library or its derivative works. These actions are
prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by
modifying or distributing the Library (or any work based on the
Library), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and
all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying
the Library or works based on it.
10. Each time you redistribute the Library (or any work based on the
Library), the recipient automatically receives a license from the
original licensor to copy, distribute, link with or modify the Library
subject to these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further
restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein.
You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties with
this License.
11. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent
infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues),
conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot
distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you
may not distribute the Library at all. For example, if a patent
license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Library by
all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then
the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to
refrain entirely from distribution of the Library.
If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under any
particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to apply,
and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other circumstances.
It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any
patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any
such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the
integrity of the free software distribution system which is
implemented by public license practices. Many people have made
generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed
through that system in reliance on consistent application of that
system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing
to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot
impose that choice.
This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to
be a consequence of the rest of this License.
12. If the distribution and/or use of the Library is restricted in
certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the
original copyright holder who places the Library under this License may add
an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding those countries,
so that distribution is permitted only in or among countries not thus
excluded. In such case, this License incorporates the limitation as if
written in the body of this License.
13. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new
versions of the Lesser General Public License from time to time.
Such new versions will be similar in spirit to the present version,
but may differ in detail to address new problems or concerns.
Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Library
specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and
"any later version", you have the option of following the terms and
conditions either of that version or of any later version published by
the Free Software Foundation. If the Library does not specify a
license version number, you may choose any version ever published by
the Free Software Foundation.
14. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Library into other free
programs whose distribution conditions are incompatible with these,
write to the author to ask for permission. For software which is
copyrighted by the Free Software Foundation, write to the Free
Software Foundation; we sometimes make exceptions for this. Our
decision will be guided by the two goals of preserving the free status
of all derivatives of our free software and of promoting the sharing
and reuse of software generally.
NO WARRANTY
15. BECAUSE THE LIBRARY IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO
WARRANTY FOR THE LIBRARY, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.
EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR
OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE LIBRARY "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY
KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE
IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE
LIBRARY IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE LIBRARY PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME
THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
16. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN
WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY
AND/OR REDISTRIBUTE THE LIBRARY AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU
FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR
CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE
LIBRARY (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING
RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A
FAILURE OF THE LIBRARY TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER SOFTWARE), EVEN IF
SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH
DAMAGES.
END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
How to Apply These Terms to Your New Libraries
If you develop a new library, and you want it to be of the greatest
possible use to the public, we recommend making it free software that
everyone can redistribute and change. You can do so by permitting
redistribution under these terms (or, alternatively, under the terms of the
ordinary General Public License).
To apply these terms, attach the following notices to the library. It is
safest to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively
convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least the
"copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
<one line to give the library's name and a brief idea of what it does.>
Copyright (C) <year> <name of author>
This library is free software; you can redistribute it and/or
modify it under the terms of the GNU Lesser General Public
License as published by the Free Software Foundation; either
version 2.1 of the License, or (at your option) any later version.
This library is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,
but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the GNU
Lesser General Public License for more details.
You should have received a copy of the GNU Lesser General Public
License along with this library; if not, write to the Free Software
Foundation, Inc., 51 Franklin St, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301 USA
Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your
school, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the library, if
necessary. Here is a sample; alter the names:
Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright interest in the
library `Frob' (a library for tweaking knobs) written by James Random Hacker.
<signature of Ty Coon>, 1 April 1990
Ty Coon, President of Vice
That's all there is to it!

2010-12-30 Tobias Leupold <tobias.leupold@web.de>
* Release: Version 0.5.1
* Bigger changes:
- Fixed some issues with the scope of variables leading to problems when multiple instances of b8 are created. Thanks to Mike Creuzer for the bug report :-)
- Centralized the loading of class definition files in the b8 constructor and created a function to handle the inclusion.
* b8.php: Return a lexer error code instead of a rating if the lexer failed. The lexer never returned FALSE but b8 checked only for this value to validate the lexer didn't fail. Thanks to Matt Friedman for the bug report :-)
* lexer/lexer_default.php: A bit of code cleanup: less useless nesting.
* doc/readme.*: Updated the documentation, added a FAQ.
2010-06-27 Tobias Leupold <tobias.leupold@web.de>
* Release: Version 0.5-r1
* doc/readme.*: Updated the documentation; forgot the newly introduced b8::HAM and b8::SPAM variables. Added some additional information about the storage model.
2010-06-02 Tobias Leupold <tobias.leupold@web.de>
* Release: Version 0.5
* 100.000 Changes (new major release!), at a glance:
- No PHP 4 compatibility anymore. Much cleaner code base with less hacks.
- Completely reworked storage model. The SQL performance increased dramatically, the Berkeley DB performance remains as fast as it always has been.
- Better lexer which can also handle non-latin1 texts in a nice way, so that e.g. Cyrillic or Chinese texts can be classified more performant.
- No config files anymore, multiple instances of b8 can be now created in the same script with different configuration, databases and no problems.
- No spooky administration interface anymore that needs an SQL database, even if Berkeley DB is used (anybody who actually used this?! I never did ;-).
- No "install" scripts and routines and a less end-user compatible documentation. Anybody integrating b8 in his homepage won't be an end-user, will he?
2009-02-03 Oliver Lillie (aka buggedcom)
* Revision: 221 (the original PHP 5 port)
* Rewrote Tobias' original class for optimisation and PHP 5 functionality.
* Improved database mysql query useage by over ~820%
* Class is faster, ~20%.
* Slight increase in memory usage, but it's small and given the advantages of the speed increase and query reduction it's worth it.
* Removed install code from mysql class and added a sql file. Anyone who wants to use this is generally going to be more advanced anyway and see the sql to install.
2009-02-03 Tobias Leupold <tobias.leupold@web.de>
* Release: Version 0.4.4 -- changed the license type from GPL to LGPL
2008-06-27 Tobias Leupold <tobias.leupold@web.de>
* Release: Version 0.4.3 -- no bugs found ... so let's make a release with only small changes ;-)
* b8.php: Removed debugging messages that were commented out anyway
* storage/storage_mysql.php: Made it possible to pass both a MySQL-link resource and a table name to b8. This makes b8 useable in the Redaxo CMS (and probably others)
* doc/readme.htm: Updated documentation accordingly
2008-02-17 Tobias Leupold <tobias.leupold@web.de>
* Release: Version 0.4.2
* interface/backup.php: the bayes*dbversion tag is now written to a database emptied by drop(), so that it will be useable without an error message even if no backup is recovered afterwards.
* doc/readme.htm: added a security note to the configuration section (htaccess should be used to avoid everybody to be able to see the configuration)
2007-09-17 Tobias Leupold <tobias.leupold@web.de>
* Release: Version 0.4.1
* storage/storage_mysql.php: fixed b8 crashing when getting passed a persistent MySQL resource link. Thanks to Paul Chapman for the bug report :-)
2007-06-08 Tobias Leupold <tobias.leupold@web.de>
* Release: Version 0.4
* Let's go the whole hog. b8's class is now "b8" and no more "bayes", and all internal variables have now according names.
* Reworked the whole (surprisingly crappy) implementation of b8. No more global() calls, everything happens inside the classes now. Made that whole stuff really object oriented (as good as possible with PHP's poor OOP model ;-).
* No more PHP code in the configuration files.
* Created an extra lexer class. This is now also configurable.
* Storage classes now can create their own databases when this is requested by the configuration.
* MySQL calls are no random shots anymore: either, a MySQL-link resource is passed to b8 on startup which will be used for the queries, or the class sets up it's own link. Same for SQLite.
* The interface now uses a separate storage backend capable of SQL. In this way, we _really_ can query the database for e. g. an ordered list of tokens. After doing what we wanted with this work database, the b8 database can be synced with it.
* Added a lot of verbose error handling.
* Fixed a dumb error: all tokens from a text were used for the spamminess calculation, because two for() loops both used $i as their counter. D'oh!!! Now, the filter's performance is way better.
* Catched on the way how that whole math stuff works a little more ;-) Now, the calculation of the single probabilities proposed by Mr. Robinson does a little more the stuff it was intended to do, because ...
* Made some calculation constants parameters: the number of tokens to use, the default rating for unknown tokens and Gary Robinson's s constant.
* Introduced an optional minimum deviation that a token's rating must have to be considered in the spamminess calculation.
* The default extreme ratings for tokens only in ham or spam are now optional. One can also choose to calculate all ratings by Mr. Robinson's method.
* Noticed that text primary keys are not case sensitive by default in MySQL, which has a noticeable impact on the filter's performance. Informed the MySQL users about that.
* The whole code sucks much less ;-) b8 should be way more user friendly now.
* Re-wrote the whole documentation.
* Fixed the ChangeLog :-)
2007-02-08 Tobias Leupold <tobias.leupold@web.de>
* Release: Version 0.3.3 again ;-)
* bayes-php is now b8. See http://www.nasauber.de/blog/text.php?text=58 for details :-) Thanks to Tobias Lang (http://langt.net/) for this cool new name!
2007-01-05 Tobias Leupold <tobias.leupold@web.de>
* Release: Version 0.3.3
* Renamed the internal BerkeleyDB handle from "$db" to the less general name "$bayes_php_db" due to an collision with phpwcms's (http://www.phpwcms.de/) global $db variable and potentially other php programs.
* Commented out Laurent Goussard's SQLite storage class by default, as it's try { } catch { } calls break PHP 4
2006-09-03 Tobias Leupold <tobias.leupold@web.de>
* Release: Version 0.3.2
* Laurent Goussard (loranger@free.fr) contributed an SQLite storage class(which needs PHP 5).
* I finally added my eMail address to the sources ;-)
2006-07-24 Tobias Leupold <tobias.leupold@web.de>
* Release: Version 0.3.1
* Fixed a problem in the unlearn() function: If a text was unlearned that wasn't learned before (accidentaly), it could happen that the count parameter for this text was smaller than 0, breaking the spamminess calulation
2006-07-02 Tobias Leupold <tobias.leupold@web.de>
* Release: Version 0.3
* Improved the get_tokens() function; the filter should now be a lot more performant, especially with short texts
* Added the "lastseen" parameter for each token to make the database maintainable (outdated tokens can be deleted)
* Added a real database maintainance interface
2006-06-12 Tobias Leupold <tobias.leupold@web.de>
* Release: Version 0.2.1
* Fixed a problem in get_tokens() (if it was called more than once, tokens were counted more often than they appeared in the text)
* Slightly enhanced the default index.php interface: after learning a text as Ham or Spam, the rating before and after it is displayed to inform the user about it
2006-05-21 Tobias Leupold <tobias.leupold@web.de>
* Release: Version 0.2
* Comments now in English (to pretend international success of bayes-php ;-)
* Recommendations of Paul Graham's article "Better Bayesian Filtering" ( http://www.paulgraham.com/better.html ) are now considered: Tokens that only appear in Ham or Spam and not in the other category are rated with 0.9998 or 0.0002 if they were less than 10 times in Ham or Spam and with 0.9999 or 0.0001 if they appeared more that 10 times. This should allow the filter to differentiate spam texts more sharp from ham texts. Also, token "degeneration" as described in the article is performed for unknown tokens to estimate their spamminess.
* The database connect is now swapped in a separate configuration file, so only this file has to be preserved if bayes-php is updated and only this file has to be changed to configure the script.
2006-03-29 Tobias Leupold <tobias.leupold@web.de>
* Release: Version 0.1.1
* get_tokens() beachtet jetzt auch HTML-Tags und Wörter mit Akzenten und Apostrophen
* Verschiedene Kleinigkeiten "sauber" gemacht :-)
2006-03-05 Tobias Leupold <tobias.leupold@web.de>
* Added 2007-06-08: Initial release (Version 0.1)

<div class="section" id="what-is-b8">
<h2><a class="toc-backref" href="#id19">1.1&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;What is b8?</a></h2>
<p>b8 is a spam filter implemented in <a class="reference external" href="http://www.php.net/">PHP</a>. It is intended to keep your weblog or guestbook spam-free. The filter can be used anywhere in your PHP code and tells you whether a text is spam or not, using statistical text analysis. See <a class="reference internal" href="#how-does-it-work">How does it work?</a> for details about this. To be able to do this, b8 first has to learn some spam and some ham example texts to decide what's good and what's not. If it makes mistakes classifying unknown texts, they can be corrected and b8 learns from the corrections, getting better with each learned text.</p>
<p>At the moment of this writing, b8 has classified 14411 guestbook entries and weblog comments on my homepage since december 2006. 131 were ham. 39 spam texts (0.27 %) have been rated as ham (false negatives), with not even one false positive (ham message classified as spam). This results in a sensitivity of 99.73 % (the probability that a spam text will actually be rated as spam) and a specifity of 100 % (the probability that a ham text will actually be rated as ham) for me. I hope, you'll get the same good results :-)</p>
<p>Basically, b8 is a statistical (&quot;Bayesian&quot;<a class="footnote-reference" href="#id2" id="id1">[1]</a>) spam filter like <a class="reference external" href="http://bogofilter.sourceforge.net/">Bogofilter</a> or <a class="reference external" href="http://spambayes.sourceforge.net/">SpamBayes</a>, but it is not intended to classify e-mails. When I started to write b8, I didn't find a good PHP spam filter (or any spam filter that wasn't just some example code how one <em>could</em> implement a Bayesian spam filter in PHP) that was intended to filter weblog or guestbook entries. That's why I had to write my own ;-) <br />
Caused by it's purpose, the way b8 works is slightly different from most of the Bayesian email spam filters out there. See <a class="reference internal" href="#what-s-different">What's different?</a> if you're interested in the details.</p>

<div class="section" id="how-does-it-work">
<h2><a class="toc-backref" href="#id20">1.2&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;How does it work?</a></h2>
<p>b8 basically uses the math and technique described in Paul Graham's article &quot;A Plan For Spam&quot; <a class="footnote-reference" href="#planforspam" id="id3">[2]</a> to distinguish ham and spam. The improvements proposed in Graham's article &quot;Better Bayesian Filtering&quot; <a class="footnote-reference" href="#betterbayesian" id="id4">[3]</a> and Gary Robinson's article &quot;Spam Detection&quot; <a class="footnote-reference" href="#spamdetection" id="id5">[4]</a> have also been considered. See also the article &quot;A Statistical Approach to the Spam Problem&quot; <a class="footnote-reference" href="#statisticalapproach" id="id6">[5]</a>.</p>
<p>b8 cuts the text to classify to pieces, extracting stuff like e-mail addresses, links and HTML tags. For each such token, it calculates a single probability for a text containing it being spam, based on what the filter has learned so far. When the token was not seen before, b8 tries to find similar ones using the &quot;degeneration&quot; described in <a class="footnote-reference" href="#betterbayesian" id="id7">[3]</a> and uses the most relevant value found. If really nothing is found, b8 assumes a default rating for this token for the further calculations. <br />
Then, b8 takes the most relevant values (which have a rating far from 0.5, which would mean we don't know what it is) and calculates the probability that the whole text is spam by the inverse chi-square function described in <a class="footnote-reference" href="#spamdetection" id="id8">[4]</a>.
There are some parameters that can be set which influence the filter's behaviour (see below).</p>
<p>In short words: you give b8 a text and it returns a value between 0 and 1, saying it's ham when it's near 0 and saying it's spam when it's near 1.</p>
</div>
<div class="section" id="what-do-i-need-for-it">
<h2><a class="toc-backref" href="#id21">1.3&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;What do I need for it?</a></h2>
<p>Not much! You just need PHP 5 on the server where b8 will be used (b8 version 0.5 finally dropped PHP 4 compatibility thankfully ;-) and a proper storage possibility for the wordlists. I strongly recommend using <a class="reference external" href="http://www.oracle.com/database/berkeley-db/index.html">Berkeley DB</a>. See below how you can check if you can use it and why you should use it. If the server's PHP wasn't compiled with Berkeley DB support, a <a class="reference external" href="http://mysql.com/">MySQL</a> table can be used alternatively.</p>
</div>
<div class="section" id="what-s-different">
<h2><a class="toc-backref" href="#id22">1.4&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;What's different?</a></h2>
<p>b8 is designed to classify weblog or guestbook entries, not e-mails. For this reason, it uses a slightly different technique than most of the other statistical spam filters out there use.</p>
<p>My experience was that spam entries on my weblog or guestbook were often quite short, sometimes just something like &quot;123abc&quot; as text and a link to a suspect homepage. Some spam bots don't even made a difference between e. g. the &quot;name&quot; and &quot;text&quot; fields and posted their text as email address, for example. Considering this, b8 just takes one string to classify, making no difference between &quot;headers&quot; and &quot;text&quot;. <br />
The other thing is that most statistical spam filters count one token one time, no matter how often it appears in the text (as Graham describes it in <a class="footnote-reference" href="#planforspam" id="id9">[2]</a>). b8 does count how often a token was seen and learns or considers this. Additionally, the number of learned ham and spam texts are saved and used as the calculation base for the single probabilities. Why this? Because a text containing one link (no matter where it points to, just indicated by a &quot;http://&quot; or a &quot;www.&quot;) might not be spam, but a text containing 20 links might be.</p>
<p>This means that b8 might be good for classifying weblog or guestbook entries (I really think it is ;-) but very likely, it will work quite poor when being used for something else (like classifying e-mails). But as said above, for this task, there are a lot of very good filters out there to choose from.</p>

<dl class="docutils">
<dt><strong>You use Berkeley DB?</strong></dt>
<dd>Everything's fine, you can simply continue using your database.</dd>
<dt><strong>You use MySQL?</strong></dt>
<dd>The <tt class="docutils literal">CREATE</tt> statement of b8's wordlist has changed. The best is probably to create a dump via your favorite administration tool or script, create the new table and re-insert all data. The layout is still the same: there's one &quot;token&quot; column and one &quot;data&quot; column. Having done that, you can keep using your data.</dd>
<dt><strong>You use SQLite?</strong></dt>
<dd>Sorry, at the moment, there's no SQLite backend for b8. But we're working on it :-)</dd>
</dl>
<p>The configuration model of b8 has changed. Please read through the <a class="reference internal" href="#configuration">Configuration</a> section and update your configuration accordingly.</p>
<p>b8's lexer has been partially re-written. It should now be able to handle all kind of non-latin-1 input, like cyrillic, chinese or japanese texts. Caused by this fact, much more tokens will be recognized when classifying such texts. Therefore, you could get different results in b8's ratings, even if the same database is used and although the math is still the same.</p>
<p>b8 0.5 introduced two constants that can be used in the <tt class="docutils literal">learn()</tt> and <tt class="docutils literal">unlearn()</tt> functions: <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">b8::HAM</span></tt> and <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">b8::SPAM</span></tt>. The literal values &quot;ham&quot; and &quot;spam&quot; can still be used anyway.</p>
</div>
</div>
<div class="section" id="installation">
<h1><a class="toc-backref" href="#id26">3&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Installation</a></h1>
<p>Installing b8 on your server is quite easy. You just have to provide the needed files. To do this, you could just upload the whole <tt class="docutils literal">b8</tt> subdirectory to the base directory of your homepage. It contains the filter itself and all needed backend classes. The other directories (<tt class="docutils literal">doc</tt>, <tt class="docutils literal">example</tt> and <tt class="docutils literal">install</tt>) are not used by b8.</p>
<p>That's it ;-)</p>
</div>
<div class="section" id="configuration">
<h1><a class="toc-backref" href="#id27">4&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Configuration</a></h1>
<p>The configuration is passed as arrays when instantiating a new b8 object. Two arrays can be passed to b8, one containing b8's base configuration and some settings for the lexer (which should be common for all lexer classes, in case some other lexer than the default one will be written one day) and one for the storage backend. <br />
You can have a look at <tt class="docutils literal">example/index.php</tt> to see how this can be done. <a class="reference internal" href="#using-b8-in-your-scripts">Using b8 in your scripts</a> also shows example code showing how b8 can be included in a PHP script.</p>
<p>Not all values have to be set. When some values are missing, the default ones will be used. If you do use the default settings, you don't have to pass them to b8.</p>
<div class="section" id="b8-s-base-configuration">
<h2><a class="toc-backref" href="#id28">4.1&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;b8's base configuration</a></h2>
<p>All these values can be set in the &quot;config_b8&quot; array (the first parameter) passed to b8. The name of the array doesn't matter (of course), it just has to be the first argument.</p>
<p>These are some basic settings telling b8 which backend classes to use:</p>
<blockquote>
<dl class="docutils">
<dt><strong>storage</strong></dt>
<dd><p class="first">This defines which storage backend will be used to save b8's wordlist. Currently, two backends are available: <a class="reference external" href="http://www.oracle.com/database/berkeley-db/index.html">Berkeley DB</a> (<tt class="docutils literal">dba</tt>) and <a class="reference external" href="http://mysql.com/">MySQL</a> (<tt class="docutils literal">mysql</tt>). At the moment, b8 does not support <a class="reference external" href="http://sqlite.org/">SQLite</a> (as the previous version did), but it will be (hopefully) re-added in one of the next releases. The default is <tt class="docutils literal">dba</tt> (string).</p>
<dl class="docutils">
<dt><em>Berkeley DB</em></dt>
<dd>This is the preferred storage backend. It was the original backend for the filter and remains the most performant. b8's storage model is optimized for this database, as it is really fast and fits perfectly to what the filter needs to do the job. All content is saved in a single file, you don't need special user rights or a database server. <br />
If you don't know whether your server's PHP can use a Berkeley DB, simply run the script <tt class="docutils literal">install/setup_berkeleydb.php</tt>. If it shows a Berkeley DB handler, please use this backend.</dd>
<dt><em>MySQL</em></dt>
<dd>As some webspace hosters don't allow using a Berkeley DB (but please be sure to check if you can use it!), but most do provide a MySQL server, using a MySQL table for the wordlist is provided as an alternative storage method. As said above, b8 was always intended to use a Berkeley DB. It doesn't use or need SQL to query the database. So, very likely, this will work less performant, produce a lot of unnecessary overhead and waste computing power. But it will do fine anyway!</dd>
</dl>
<p class="last">See <a class="reference internal" href="#configuration-of-the-storage-backend">Configuration of the storage backend</a> for the settings of the chosen backend.</p>
</dd>
<dt><strong>degenerator</strong></dt>
<dd>The degenerator class to be used. See <a class="reference internal" href="#how-does-it-work">How does it work?</a> and <a class="footnote-reference" href="#betterbayesian" id="id12">[3]</a> if you're interested in what &quot;degeneration&quot; is. Defaults to <tt class="docutils literal">default</tt> (string). At the moment, only one degenerator exists, so you probably don't want to change this unless you have written your own degenerator.</dd>
<dt><strong>lexer</strong></dt>
<dd><p class="first">The lexer class to be used. Defaults to <tt class="docutils literal">default</tt> (string). At the moment, only one lexer exists, so you probably don't want to change this unless you have written your own lexer.</p>
<p>The behaviour of the lexer can be additionally configured with the following variables:</p>
<blockquote class="last">
<dl class="docutils">
<dt><strong>min_size</strong></dt>
<dd>The minimal length for a token to be considered when calculating the rating of a text. Defaults to <tt class="docutils literal">3</tt> (integer).</dd>
<dt><strong>max_size</strong></dt>
<dd>The maximal length for a token to be considered when calculating the rating of a text. Defaults to <tt class="docutils literal">30</tt> (integer).</dd>
<dt><strong>allow_numbers</strong></dt>
<dd>Should pure numbers also be considered? Defaults to <tt class="docutils literal">FALSE</tt> (boolean).</dd>
</dl>
</blockquote>
</dd>
</dl>
</blockquote>
<p>The following settings influence the mathematical internals of b8. If you want to experiment, feel free to play around with them; but be warned: wrong settings of these values will result in poor performance or could even &quot;short-circuit&quot; the filter. <br />
Leave these values as they are unless you know what you are doing!</p>
<p>The &quot;Statistical discussion about b8&quot; <a class="footnote-reference" href="#b8statistic" id="id13">[6]</a> shows why the default values are the default ones.</p>
<blockquote>
<dl class="docutils">
<dt><strong>use_relevant</strong></dt>
<dd>This tells b8 how many tokens should be used when calculating the spamminess of a text. The default setting is <tt class="docutils literal">15</tt> (integer). This seems to be a quite reasonable value. When using to many tokens, the filter will fail on texts filled with useless stuff or with passages from a newspaper, etc. not being very spammish. <br />
The tokens counted multiple times (see above) are added in addition to this value. They don't replace other ratings.</dd>
<dt><strong>min_dev</strong></dt>
<dd>This defines a minimum deviation from 0.5 that a token's rating must have to be considered when calculating the spamminess. Tokens with a rating closer to 0.5 than this value will simply be skipped. <br />
If you don't want to use this feature, set this to <tt class="docutils literal">0</tt>. Defaults to <tt class="docutils literal">0.2</tt> (float). Read <a class="footnote-reference" href="#b8statistic" id="id14">[6]</a> before increasing this.</dd>
<dt><strong>rob_x</strong></dt>
<dd>This is Gary Robinson's <em>x</em> constant (cf. <a class="footnote-reference" href="#spamdetection" id="id15">[4]</a>). A completely unknown token will be rated with the value of <tt class="docutils literal">rob_x</tt>. The default <tt class="docutils literal">0.5</tt> (float) seems to be quite reasonable, as we can't say if a token that also can't be rated by degeneration is good or bad. <br />
If you receive much more spam than ham or vice versa, you could change this setting accordingly.</dd>
<dt><strong>rob_s</strong></dt>
<dd>This is Gary Robinson's <em>s</em> constant. This is essentially the probability that the <em>rob_x</em> value is correct for a completely unknown token. It will also shift the probability of rarely seen tokens towards this value. The default is <tt class="docutils literal">0.3</tt> (float) <br />
See <a class="footnote-reference" href="#spamdetection" id="id16">[4]</a> for a closer description of the <em>s</em> constant and read <a class="footnote-reference" href="#b8statistic" id="id17">[6]</a> for specific information about this constant in b8's algorithms.</dd>

<p>Now, that everything is configured, you can start to use b8. A sample script that shows what can be done with the filter exists in <tt class="docutils literal">example/index.php</tt>. The best thing for testing how all this works is to use this script before using b8 in your own scripts.</p>
<p>Before you can start, you have to setup a database so that b8 can store a wordlist.</p>

<p>I wrote a script to setup a new Berkeley DB for b8. It is located in <tt class="docutils literal">install/setup_berkeleydb.php</tt>. Just run this script on your server and be sure that the directory containing it has the proper access rights set so that the server's HTTP server user or PHP user can create a new file in it (probably <tt class="docutils literal">0777</tt>). The script is quite self-explaining, just run it.</p>
<p>Of course, you can also create a Berkeley DB by hand. In this case, you just have to insert three keys:</p>
<pre class="literal-block">
bayes*dbversion =&gt; 2
bayes*texts.ham =&gt; 0
bayes*texts.spam =&gt; 0

<h2><a class="toc-backref" href="#id36">5.2&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Using b8 in your scripts</a></h2>
<p>Just have a look at the example script located in <tt class="docutils literal">example/index.php</tt> to see how you can include b8 in your scripts. Essentially, this strips down to:</p>
<pre class="literal-block">
# Include the b8 code
require &quot;{$_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT']}/b8/b8.php&quot;;
# Do some configuration
$config_b8 = array(
'some_key' =&gt; 'some_value',
'foo' =&gt; 'bar'
);
$config_database = array(
'some_key' =&gt; 'some_value',
'foo' =&gt; 'bar'
);
# Create a new b8 instance
$b8 = new b8($config_b8, $config_database);
</pre>
<p>b8 provides three functions in an object oriented way (called e. g. via <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">$b8-&gt;classify($text)</span></tt>):</p>
<dl class="docutils">
<dt><strong>learn($text, $category)</strong></dt>
<dd>This saves the reference text <tt class="docutils literal">$text</tt> (string) in the category <tt class="docutils literal">$category</tt> (b8 constant). <br />
b8 0.5 introduced two constants that can be used as <tt class="docutils literal">$category</tt>: <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">b8::HAM</span></tt> and <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">b8::SPAM</span></tt>. To be downward compatible with older versions of b8, the literal values &quot;ham&quot; and &quot;spam&quot; (case-sensitive strings) can still be used here.</dd>
<dt><strong>unlearn($text, $category)</strong></dt>
<dd>This function just exists to delete a text from a category in which is has been stored accidentally before. It deletes the reference text <tt class="docutils literal">$text</tt> (string) from the category <tt class="docutils literal">$category</tt> (either the constants <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">b8::HAM</span></tt> or <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">b8::SPAM</span></tt> or the literal case-sensitive strings &quot;ham&quot; or &quot;spam&quot; cf. above). <br />
<strong>Don't delete a spam text from ham after saving it in spam or vice versa, as long you don't have stored it accidentally in the wrong category before!</strong> This will not improve performance, quite the opposite: it will actually break the filter after a time, as the counter for saved ham or spam texts will reach 0, although you have ham or spam tokens stored: the filter will try to remove texts from the ham or spam data which have never been stored there, decrease the counter for tokens which are found just skip the non-existing words.</dd>
<dt><strong>classify($text)</strong></dt>
<dd>This function takes the text <tt class="docutils literal">$text</tt> (string), calculates it's probability for being spam it and returns a value between 0 and 1 (float). <br />
A value close to 0 says the text is more likely ham and a value close to 1 says the text is more likely spam. What to do with this value is <em>your</em> business ;-) See also <a class="reference internal" href="#tips-on-operation">Tips on operation</a> below.</dd>
</dl>
</div>
</div>
<div class="section" id="tips-on-operation">
<h1><a class="toc-backref" href="#id37">6&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Tips on operation</a></h1>
<p>Before b8 can decide whether a text is spam or ham, you have to tell it what you consider as spam or ham. At least one learned spam or one learned ham text is needed to calculate anything. To get good ratings, you need both learned ham and learned spam texts, the more the better. <br />
What's considered as &quot;ham&quot; or &quot;spam&quot; can be very different, depending on the operation site. On my homepage, practically each and every text posted in English or using cyrillic letters is spam. On an English or Russian homepage, this will be not the case. So I think it's not really meaningful to provide some &quot;spam data&quot; to start. Just train b8 with &quot;your&quot; spam and ham.</p>
<p>For the practical use, I advise to give the filter all data availible. E. g. name, email address, homepage, IP address und of course the text itself should be stored in a variable (e. g. separated with an <tt class="docutils literal">\n</tt> or just a space or tab after each block) and then be classified. The learning should also be done with all data availible. <br />
Saving the IP address is probably only meaningful for spam entries, because spammers often use the same IP address multiple times. In principle, you can leave out the IP of ham entries.</p>
<p>You can use b8 e. g. in a guestbook script and let it classify the text before saving it. Everyone has to decide which rating is necessary to classify a text as &quot;spam&quot;, but a rating of &gt;= 0.8 seems to be reasonable for me. If one expects the spam to be in another language that the ham entries or the spams are very short normally, one could also think about a limit of 0.7. <br />
The email filters out there mostly use &gt; 0.9 or even &gt; 0.99; but keep in mind that they have way more data to analyze in most of the cases. A guestbook entry may be quite short, especially when it's spam.</p>
<p>In my opinion, a autolearn function is very handy. I save spam messages with a rating higher than 0.7 but less than 0.9 automatically as spam. I don't do this with ham messages in an automated way to prevent the filter from saving a false negative as ham and then classifying and learning all the spam as ham when I'm on holidays ;-)</p>

<h2><a class="toc-backref" href="#id41">9.1&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;FAQ</a></h2>
<div class="section" id="what-about-more-than-two-categories">
<h3><a class="toc-backref" href="#id42">9.1.1&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;What about more than two categories?</a></h3>
<p>I wrote b8 with the <a class="reference external" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KISS_principle">KISS principle</a> in mind. For the &quot;end-user&quot;, we have a class with almost no setup to do that can do three things: classify a text, learn a text and un-learn a text. Normally, there's no need to un-learn a text, so essentially, there are only two functions we need. <br />
This simplicity is only possible because b8 only knows two categories (normally &quot;Ham&quot; and &quot;Spam&quot; or some other category pair) and tells you, in one float number between 0 and 1, if a given texts rather fits in the first or the second category. If we would support multiple categories, more work would have to be done and things would become more complicated. One would have to setup the categories, have another database layout (perhaps making it mandatory to have SQL) and one float number would not be sufficient to describe b8's output, so more code would be needed even outside of b8.</p>
<p>All the code, the database layout and particularly the math is intended to do exactly one thing: distinguish between two categories. I think it would be a lot of work to change b8 so that it would support more than two categories. Probably, this is possible to do, but don't ask me in which way we would have to change the math to get multiple-category support I'm a dentist, not a mathematician ;-) <br />
Apart from this I do believe that most people using b8 don't want or need multiple categories. They just want to know if a text is spam or not, don't they? I do, at least ;-)</p>
<p>But let's think about the multiple-category thing. How would we calculate a rating for more than two categories? If we had a third one, let's call it &quot;<a class="reference external" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Treet">Treet</a>&quot;, how would we calculate a rating? We could calculate three different ratings. One for &quot;Ham&quot;, one for &quot;Spam&quot; and one for &quot;Treet&quot; and choose the highest one to tell the user what category fits best for the text. This could be done by using a small wrapper script using three instances of b8 as-is and three different databases, each containing texts being &quot;Ham&quot;, &quot;Spam&quot;, &quot;Treet&quot; and the respective counterparts. <br />
But here's the problem: if we have &quot;Ham&quot; and &quot;Spam&quot;, &quot;Spam&quot; is the counterpart of &quot;Ham&quot;. But what's the counterpart of &quot;Spam&quot; if we have more than one additional category? Where do the &quot;Non-Ham&quot;, &quot;Non-Spam&quot; and &quot;Non-Treet&quot; texts come from?</p>
<p>Another approach, a direct calculation of more than two probabilities (the &quot;Ham&quot; probability is simply 1 minus the &quot;Spam&quot; probability, so we actually get two probabilities with the return value of b8) out of one database would require big changes in b8's structure and math.</p>
<p>There's a project called <a class="reference external" href="http://xhtml.net/scripts/PHPNaiveBayesianFilter">PHPNaiveBayesianFilter</a> which supports multiple categories by default. The author calls his software &quot;Version 1.0&quot;, but I think this is the very first release, not a stable or mature one. The most recent change of that release dates back to 2003 according to the &quot;changed&quot; date of the files inside the zip archive, so probably, this project is dead or has never been alive and under active development at all. <br />
Actually, I played around with that code but the results weren't really good, so I decided to write my own spam filter from scratch back in early 2006 ;-)</p>
<p>All in all, there seems to be no easy way to implement multiple (meaning more than two) categories using b8's current code base and probably, b8 will never support more than two categories. Perhaps, a fork or a complete re-write would be better than implementing such a feature. Anyway, I don't close my mind to multiple categories in b8. Feel free to tell me how multiple categories could be implementented in b8 or how a multiple-category version using the same code base (sharing a common abstract class?) could be written.</p>
</div>
<div class="section" id="what-about-a-list-with-words-to-ignore">
<h3><a class="toc-backref" href="#id43">9.1.2&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;What about a list with words to ignore?</a></h3>
<p>Some people suggested to introduce a list with words that b8 will simply ignore. Like &quot;and&quot;, &quot;or&quot;, &quot;the&quot;, and so on. I don't think this is very meaningful.</p>
<p>First, it would just work for the particular language that has been stored in the list. Speaking of my homepage, most of my spam is English, almost all my ham is German. So I would have to maintain a list with the probably less interesting words for at least two languages. Additionally, I get spam in Chinese, Japanese and Cyrillic writing or something else I can't read as well. What word should be ignored in those texts? <br />
Second, why should we ever exclude words? Who tells us those words are <em>actually</em> meaningless? If a word appears both in ham and spam, it's rating will be near 0.5 and so, it won't be used for the final calculation if a appropriate minimum deviation was set. So b8 will exclude it anyway without any blacklist. And think of this: if we excluded a word of which we only <em>think</em> it doesn't mean anything but it actually does appear more often in ham or spam, the results will get even worse.</p>
<p>So why should we care about things we do not have to care about? ;-)</p>
</div>
<div class="section" id="why-is-it-called-b8">
<h3><a class="toc-backref" href="#id44">9.1.3&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Why is it called &quot;b8&quot;?</a></h3>
<p>The initial name for the filter was (damn creative!) &quot;bayes-php&quot;. There were two main reasons for searching another name: 1. &quot;bayes-php&quot; sucks. 2. the <a class="reference external" href="http://php.net/license/3_01.txt">PHP License</a> says the PHP guys do not like when the name of a script written in PHP contains the word &quot;PHP&quot;. Read the <a class="reference external" href="http://www.php.net/license/index.php#faq-lic">License FAQ</a> for a reasonable argumentation about this.</p>
<p>Luckily, <a class="reference external" href="http://langt.net/">Tobias Lang</a> proposed the new name &quot;b8&quot;. And these are the reasons why I chose this name:</p>
<ul class="simple">
<li>&quot;bayes-php&quot; is a &quot;b&quot; followed by 8 letters.</li>
<li>&quot;b8&quot; is short and handy. Additionally, there was no program with the name &quot;b8&quot; or &quot;bate&quot;</li>
<li>The English verb &quot;to bate&quot; means &quot;to decrease&quot; and that's what b8 does: it decreases the number of spam entries in your weblog or guestbook!</li>
<li>&quot;b8&quot; just sounds way cooler than &quot;bayes-php&quot; ;-)</li>
</ul>
</div>
</div>
<div class="section" id="about-the-database">
<h2><a class="toc-backref" href="#id45">9.2&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;About the database</a></h2>
<div class="section" id="the-database-layout">
<h3><a class="toc-backref" href="#id46">9.2.1&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The database layout</a></h3>
<p>The database layout is quite simple. It's just key:value for everything stored. There are three &quot;internal&quot; variables stored as normal tokens (but all containing a <tt class="docutils literal">*</tt> which is always used as a split character by the lexer, so we can't get collisions):</p>
<dl class="docutils">
<dt><strong>bayes*dbversion</strong></dt>
<dd>This indicates the database's &quot;version&quot;. The first versions of b8 did not set this. Version &quot;2&quot; indicates that we have a database created by a b8 version already storing <a class="reference internal" href="#the-lastseen-parameter">the &quot;lastseen&quot; parameter</a>.</dd>
<dt><strong>bayes*texts.ham</strong></dt>
<dd>The number of ham texts learned.</dd>
<dt><strong>bayes*texts.spam</strong></dt>
<dd>The number of spam texts learned.</dd>
</dl>
<p>Each &quot;normal&quot; token is stored with it's literal name as the key and it's data as the value. The data consists of the count of the token in all ham and spam texts and the date when the token was used the last time, all in one string and separated by spaces. So we have the following scheme:</p>
<pre class="literal-block">
&quot;token&quot; =&gt; &quot;count_ham count_spam lastseen&quot;
</pre>
</div>
<div class="section" id="the-lastseen-parameter">
<h3><a class="toc-backref" href="#id47">9.2.2&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The &quot;lastseen&quot; parameter</a></h3>
<p>Somebody looking at the code might be wondering why b8 stores this &quot;lastseen&quot; parameter. This value is not used for any calculation at the moment. Initially, it was intended to keep the database maintainable in a way that &quot;old&quot; data could be removed. When e. g. a token only appeared once in ham or spam and has not been seen for a year, one could simply delete it from the database. <br />
I actually never used this feature (does anybody?). So probably, some changes will be done to this one day. Perhaps, I find a way to include this data in the spamminess calculation in a meaningful way, or at least for some statistics. One could also make this optional to keep the calculation effort small if this is needed.</p>
<p>Feel free to send me any suggestions about this!</p>

Description of b8
=================
What is b8?
-----------
b8 is a spam filter implemented in `PHP <http://www.php.net/>`__. It is intended to keep your weblog or guestbook spam-free. The filter can be used anywhere in your PHP code and tells you whether a text is spam or not, using statistical text analysis. See `How does it work?`_ for details about this. To be able to do this, b8 first has to learn some spam and some ham example texts to decide what's good and what's not. If it makes mistakes classifying unknown texts, they can be corrected and b8 learns from the corrections, getting better with each learned text.
At the moment of this writing, b8 has classified 14411 guestbook entries and weblog comments on my homepage since december 2006. 131 were ham. 39 spam texts (0.27 %) have been rated as ham (false negatives), with not even one false positive (ham message classified as spam). This results in a sensitivity of 99.73 % (the probability that a spam text will actually be rated as spam) and a specifity of 100 % (the probability that a ham text will actually be rated as ham) for me. I hope, you'll get the same good results :-)
Basically, b8 is a statistical ("Bayesian"[#]_) spam filter like `Bogofilter <http://bogofilter.sourceforge.net/>`__ or `SpamBayes <http://spambayes.sourceforge.net/>`__, but it is not intended to classify e-mails. When I started to write b8, I didn't find a good PHP spam filter (or any spam filter that wasn't just some example code how one *could* implement a Bayesian spam filter in PHP) that was intended to filter weblog or guestbook entries. That's why I had to write my own ;-) |br|
Caused by it's purpose, the way b8 works is slightly different from most of the Bayesian email spam filters out there. See `What's different?`_ if you're interested in the details.
.. [#] A mathematician told me that the math in b8 actually does not use Bayes' theorem but some derived algorithms that are just related to it. So … let's simply believe that and stop claiming b8 was a *Bayesian* spam filter ;-)
How does it work?
-----------------
b8 basically uses the math and technique described in Paul Graham's article "A Plan For Spam" [#planforspam]_ to distinguish ham and spam. The improvements proposed in Graham's article "Better Bayesian Filtering" [#betterbayesian]_ and Gary Robinson's article "Spam Detection" [#spamdetection]_ have also been considered. See also the article "A Statistical Approach to the Spam Problem" [#statisticalapproach]_.
b8 cuts the text to classify to pieces, extracting stuff like e-mail addresses, links and HTML tags. For each such token, it calculates a single probability for a text containing it being spam, based on what the filter has learned so far. When the token was not seen before, b8 tries to find similar ones using the "degeneration" described in [#betterbayesian]_ and uses the most relevant value found. If really nothing is found, b8 assumes a default rating for this token for the further calculations. |br|
Then, b8 takes the most relevant values (which have a rating far from 0.5, which would mean we don't know what it is) and calculates the probability that the whole text is spam by the inverse chi-square function described in [#spamdetection]_.
There are some parameters that can be set which influence the filter's behaviour (see below).
In short words: you give b8 a text and it returns a value between 0 and 1, saying it's ham when it's near 0 and saying it's spam when it's near 1.
What do I need for it?
----------------------
Not much! You just need PHP 5 on the server where b8 will be used (b8 version 0.5 finally dropped PHP 4 compatibility thankfully ;-) and a proper storage possibility for the wordlists. I strongly recommend using `Berkeley DB <http://www.oracle.com/database/berkeley-db/index.html>`_. See below how you can check if you can use it and why you should use it. If the server's PHP wasn't compiled with Berkeley DB support, a `MySQL <http://mysql.com/>`_ table can be used alternatively.
What's different?
-----------------
b8 is designed to classify weblog or guestbook entries, not e-mails. For this reason, it uses a slightly different technique than most of the other statistical spam filters out there use.
My experience was that spam entries on my weblog or guestbook were often quite short, sometimes just something like "123abc" as text and a link to a suspect homepage. Some spam bots don't even made a difference between e. g. the "name" and "text" fields and posted their text as email address, for example. Considering this, b8 just takes one string to classify, making no difference between "headers" and "text". |br|
The other thing is that most statistical spam filters count one token one time, no matter how often it appears in the text (as Graham describes it in [#planforspam]_). b8 does count how often a token was seen and learns or considers this. Additionally, the number of learned ham and spam texts are saved and used as the calculation base for the single probabilities. Why this? Because a text containing one link (no matter where it points to, just indicated by a "\h\t\t\p\:\/\/" or a "www.") might not be spam, but a text containing 20 links might be.
This means that b8 might be good for classifying weblog or guestbook entries (I really think it is ;-) but very likely, it will work quite poor when being used for something else (like classifying e-mails). But as said above, for this task, there are a lot of very good filters out there to choose from.
Update from prior versions
==========================
If this is a new b8 installation, read on at the `Installation`_ section!
Update from bayes-php version 0.2.1 or earlier
----------------------------------------------
Please first follow the database update instructions of the bayes-php-0.3 release if you update from a version prior to bayes-php-0.3 and then read the following paragraph about updating from a version <0.3.3.
Update from bayes-php version 0.3 or later
------------------------------------------
**You use Berkeley DB?**
Everything's fine, you can simply continue using your database.
**You use MySQL?**
The ``CREATE`` statement of b8's wordlist has changed. The best is probably to create a dump via your favorite administration tool or script, create the new table and re-insert all data. The layout is still the same: there's one "token" column and one "data" column. Having done that, you can keep using your data.
**You use SQLite?**
Sorry, at the moment, there's no SQLite backend for b8. But we're working on it :-)
The configuration model of b8 has changed. Please read through the `Configuration`_ section and update your configuration accordingly.
b8's lexer has been partially re-written. It should now be able to handle all kind of non-latin-1 input, like cyrillic, chinese or japanese texts. Caused by this fact, much more tokens will be recognized when classifying such texts. Therefore, you could get different results in b8's ratings, even if the same database is used and although the math is still the same.
b8 0.5 introduced two constants that can be used in the ``learn()`` and ``unlearn()`` functions: ``b8::HAM`` and ``b8::SPAM``. The literal values "ham" and "spam" can still be used anyway.
Installation
============
Installing b8 on your server is quite easy. You just have to provide the needed files. To do this, you could just upload the whole ``b8`` subdirectory to the base directory of your homepage. It contains the filter itself and all needed backend classes. The other directories (``doc``, ``example`` and ``install``) are not used by b8.
That's it ;-)
Configuration
=============
The configuration is passed as arrays when instantiating a new b8 object. Two arrays can be passed to b8, one containing b8's base configuration and some settings for the lexer (which should be common for all lexer classes, in case some other lexer than the default one will be written one day) and one for the storage backend. |br|
You can have a look at ``example/index.php`` to see how this can be done. `Using b8 in your scripts`_ also shows example code showing how b8 can be included in a PHP script.
Not all values have to be set. When some values are missing, the default ones will be used. If you do use the default settings, you don't have to pass them to b8.
b8's base configuration
-----------------------
All these values can be set in the "config_b8" array (the first parameter) passed to b8. The name of the array doesn't matter (of course), it just has to be the first argument.
These are some basic settings telling b8 which backend classes to use:
**storage**
This defines which storage backend will be used to save b8's wordlist. Currently, two backends are available: `Berkeley DB <http://www.oracle.com/database/berkeley-db/index.html>`_ (``dba``) and `MySQL <http://mysql.com/>`_ (``mysql``). At the moment, b8 does not support `SQLite <http://sqlite.org/>`_ (as the previous version did), but it will be (hopefully) re-added in one of the next releases. The default is ``dba`` (string).
*Berkeley DB*
This is the preferred storage backend. It was the original backend for the filter and remains the most performant. b8's storage model is optimized for this database, as it is really fast and fits perfectly to what the filter needs to do the job. All content is saved in a single file, you don't need special user rights or a database server. |br|
If you don't know whether your server's PHP can use a Berkeley DB, simply run the script ``install/setup_berkeleydb.php``. If it shows a Berkeley DB handler, please use this backend.
*MySQL*
As some webspace hosters don't allow using a Berkeley DB (but please be sure to check if you can use it!), but most do provide a MySQL server, using a MySQL table for the wordlist is provided as an alternative storage method. As said above, b8 was always intended to use a Berkeley DB. It doesn't use or need SQL to query the database. So, very likely, this will work less performant, produce a lot of unnecessary overhead and waste computing power. But it will do fine anyway!
See `Configuration of the storage backend`_ for the settings of the chosen backend.
**degenerator**
The degenerator class to be used. See `How does it work?`_ and [#betterbayesian]_ if you're interested in what "degeneration" is. Defaults to ``default`` (string). At the moment, only one degenerator exists, so you probably don't want to change this unless you have written your own degenerator.
**lexer**
The lexer class to be used. Defaults to ``default`` (string). At the moment, only one lexer exists, so you probably don't want to change this unless you have written your own lexer.
The behaviour of the lexer can be additionally configured with the following variables:
**min_size**
The minimal length for a token to be considered when calculating the rating of a text. Defaults to ``3`` (integer).
**max_size**
The maximal length for a token to be considered when calculating the rating of a text. Defaults to ``30`` (integer).
**allow_numbers**
Should pure numbers also be considered? Defaults to ``FALSE`` (boolean).
The following settings influence the mathematical internals of b8. If you want to experiment, feel free to play around with them; but be warned: wrong settings of these values will result in poor performance or could even "short-circuit" the filter. |br|
Leave these values as they are unless you know what you are doing!
The "Statistical discussion about b8" [#b8statistic]_ shows why the default values are the default ones.
**use_relevant**
This tells b8 how many tokens should be used when calculating the spamminess of a text. The default setting is ``15`` (integer). This seems to be a quite reasonable value. When using to many tokens, the filter will fail on texts filled with useless stuff or with passages from a newspaper, etc. not being very spammish. |br|
The tokens counted multiple times (see above) are added in addition to this value. They don't replace other ratings.
**min_dev**
This defines a minimum deviation from 0.5 that a token's rating must have to be considered when calculating the spamminess. Tokens with a rating closer to 0.5 than this value will simply be skipped. |br|
If you don't want to use this feature, set this to ``0``. Defaults to ``0.2`` (float). Read [#b8statistic]_ before increasing this.
**rob_x**
This is Gary Robinson's *x* constant (cf. [#spamdetection]_). A completely unknown token will be rated with the value of ``rob_x``. The default ``0.5`` (float) seems to be quite reasonable, as we can't say if a token that also can't be rated by degeneration is good or bad. |br|
If you receive much more spam than ham or vice versa, you could change this setting accordingly.
**rob_s**
This is Gary Robinson's *s* constant. This is essentially the probability that the *rob_x* value is correct for a completely unknown token. It will also shift the probability of rarely seen tokens towards this value. The default is ``0.3`` (float) |br|
See [#spamdetection]_ for a closer description of the *s* constant and read [#b8statistic]_ for specific information about this constant in b8's algorithms.
Configuration of the storage backend
------------------------------------
All the following values can be set in the "config_database" array (the second parameter) passed to b8. The name of the array doesn't matter (of course), it just has to be the second argument.
Settings for the Berkeley DB (DBA) backend
``````````````````````````````````````````
**database**
The filename of the database file, relative to the location of ``b8.php``. Defaults to ``wordlist.db`` (string).
**handler**
The DBA handler to use (cf. `the PHP documentation <http://php.net/manual/en/dba.requirements.php>`_ and `Setting up a new Berkeley DB`_). Defaults to ``db4`` (string).
Settings for the MySQL backend
``````````````````````````````
**database**
The database containing b8's wordlist table. Defaults to ``b8_wordlist`` (string).
**table_name**
The table containing b8's wordlist. Defaults to ``b8_wordlist`` (string).
**host**
The host of the MySQL server. Defaults to ``localhost`` (string).
**user**
The user name used to open the database connection. Defaults to ``FALSE`` (boolean).
**pass**
The password required to open the database connection. Defaults to ``FALSE`` (boolean).
**connection**
An existing MySQL link-resource that can be used by b8. Defaults to ``NULL`` (NULL).
Using b8
========
Now, that everything is configured, you can start to use b8. A sample script that shows what can be done with the filter exists in ``example/index.php``. The best thing for testing how all this works is to use this script before using b8 in your own scripts.
Before you can start, you have to setup a database so that b8 can store a wordlist.
Setting up a new database
-------------------------
Setting up a new Berkeley DB
````````````````````````````
I wrote a script to setup a new Berkeley DB for b8. It is located in ``install/setup_berkeleydb.php``. Just run this script on your server and be sure that the directory containing it has the proper access rights set so that the server's HTTP server user or PHP user can create a new file in it (probably ``0777``). The script is quite self-explaining, just run it.
Of course, you can also create a Berkeley DB by hand. In this case, you just have to insert three keys:
::
bayes*dbversion => 2
bayes*texts.ham => 0
bayes*texts.spam => 0
Be sure to set the right DBA handler in the storage backend configuration if it's not ``db4``.
Setting up a new MySQL table
````````````````````````````
The SQL file ``install/setup_mysql.sql`` contains both the create statement for the wordlist table of b8 and the ``INSERT`` statements for adding the necessary internal variables.
Simply change the table name according to your needs (or leave it as it is ;-) and run the SQL to setup a b8 wordlist MySQL table.
Using b8 in your scripts
------------------------
Just have a look at the example script located in ``example/index.php`` to see how you can include b8 in your scripts. Essentially, this strips down to:
::
# Include the b8 code
require "{$_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT']}/b8/b8.php";
# Do some configuration
$config_b8 = array(
'some_key' => 'some_value',
'foo' => 'bar'
);
$config_database = array(
'some_key' => 'some_value',
'foo' => 'bar'
);
# Create a new b8 instance
$b8 = new b8($config_b8, $config_database);
b8 provides three functions in an object oriented way (called e. g. via ``$b8->classify($text)``):
**learn($text, $category)**
This saves the reference text ``$text`` (string) in the category ``$category`` (b8 constant). |br|
b8 0.5 introduced two constants that can be used as ``$category``: ``b8::HAM`` and ``b8::SPAM``. To be downward compatible with older versions of b8, the literal values "ham" and "spam" (case-sensitive strings) can still be used here.
**unlearn($text, $category)**
This function just exists to delete a text from a category in which is has been stored accidentally before. It deletes the reference text ``$text`` (string) from the category ``$category`` (either the constants ``b8::HAM`` or ``b8::SPAM`` or the literal case-sensitive strings "ham" or "spam" cf. above). |br|
**Don't delete a spam text from ham after saving it in spam or vice versa, as long you don't have stored it accidentally in the wrong category before!** This will not improve performance, quite the opposite: it will actually break the filter after a time, as the counter for saved ham or spam texts will reach 0, although you have ham or spam tokens stored: the filter will try to remove texts from the ham or spam data which have never been stored there, decrease the counter for tokens which are found just skip the non-existing words.
**classify($text)**
This function takes the text ``$text`` (string), calculates it's probability for being spam it and returns a value between 0 and 1 (float). |br|
A value close to 0 says the text is more likely ham and a value close to 1 says the text is more likely spam. What to do with this value is *your* business ;-) See also `Tips on operation`_ below.
Tips on operation
=================
Before b8 can decide whether a text is spam or ham, you have to tell it what you consider as spam or ham. At least one learned spam or one learned ham text is needed to calculate anything. To get good ratings, you need both learned ham and learned spam texts, the more the better. |br|
What's considered as "ham" or "spam" can be very different, depending on the operation site. On my homepage, practically each and every text posted in English or using cyrillic letters is spam. On an English or Russian homepage, this will be not the case. So I think it's not really meaningful to provide some "spam data" to start. Just train b8 with "your" spam and ham.
For the practical use, I advise to give the filter all data availible. E. g. name, email address, homepage, IP address und of course the text itself should be stored in a variable (e. g. separated with an ``\n`` or just a space or tab after each block) and then be classified. The learning should also be done with all data availible. |br|
Saving the IP address is probably only meaningful for spam entries, because spammers often use the same IP address multiple times. In principle, you can leave out the IP of ham entries.
You can use b8 e. g. in a guestbook script and let it classify the text before saving it. Everyone has to decide which rating is necessary to classify a text as "spam", but a rating of >= 0.8 seems to be reasonable for me. If one expects the spam to be in another language that the ham entries or the spams are very short normally, one could also think about a limit of 0.7. |br|
The email filters out there mostly use > 0.9 or even > 0.99; but keep in mind that they have way more data to analyze in most of the cases. A guestbook entry may be quite short, especially when it's spam.
In my opinion, a autolearn function is very handy. I save spam messages with a rating higher than 0.7 but less than 0.9 automatically as spam. I don't do this with ham messages in an automated way to prevent the filter from saving a false negative as ham and then classifying and learning all the spam as ham when I'm on holidays ;-)
Closing
=======
So … that's it. Thanks for using b8! If you find a bug or have an idea how to make b8 better, let me know. I'm also always looking forward to get e-mails from people using b8 on their homepages :-)

FAQ
---
What about more than two categories?
````````````````````````````````````
I wrote b8 with the `KISS principle <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KISS_principle>`__ in mind. For the "end-user", we have a class with almost no setup to do that can do three things: classify a text, learn a text and un-learn a text. Normally, there's no need to un-learn a text, so essentially, there are only two functions we need. |br|
This simplicity is only possible because b8 only knows two categories (normally "Ham" and "Spam" or some other category pair) and tells you, in one float number between 0 and 1, if a given texts rather fits in the first or the second category. If we would support multiple categories, more work would have to be done and things would become more complicated. One would have to setup the categories, have another database layout (perhaps making it mandatory to have SQL) and one float number would not be sufficient to describe b8's output, so more code would be needed even outside of b8.
All the code, the database layout and particularly the math is intended to do exactly one thing: distinguish between two categories. I think it would be a lot of work to change b8 so that it would support more than two categories. Probably, this is possible to do, but don't ask me in which way we would have to change the math to get multiple-category support I'm a dentist, not a mathematician ;-) |br|
Apart from this I do believe that most people using b8 don't want or need multiple categories. They just want to know if a text is spam or not, don't they? I do, at least ;-)
But let's think about the multiple-category thing. How would we calculate a rating for more than two categories? If we had a third one, let's call it "`Treet <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Treet>`__", how would we calculate a rating? We could calculate three different ratings. One for "Ham", one for "Spam" and one for "Treet" and choose the highest one to tell the user what category fits best for the text. This could be done by using a small wrapper script using three instances of b8 as-is and three different databases, each containing texts being "Ham", "Spam", "Treet" and the respective counterparts. |br|
But here's the problem: if we have "Ham" and "Spam", "Spam" is the counterpart of "Ham". But what's the counterpart of "Spam" if we have more than one additional category? Where do the "Non-Ham", "Non-Spam" and "Non-Treet" texts come from?
Another approach, a direct calculation of more than two probabilities (the "Ham" probability is simply 1 minus the "Spam" probability, so we actually get two probabilities with the return value of b8) out of one database would require big changes in b8's structure and math.
There's a project called `PHPNaiveBayesianFilter <http://xhtml.net/scripts/PHPNaiveBayesianFilter>`__ which supports multiple categories by default. The author calls his software "Version 1.0", but I think this is the very first release, not a stable or mature one. The most recent change of that release dates back to 2003 according to the "changed" date of the files inside the zip archive, so probably, this project is dead or has never been alive and under active development at all. |br|
Actually, I played around with that code but the results weren't really good, so I decided to write my own spam filter from scratch back in early 2006 ;-)
All in all, there seems to be no easy way to implement multiple (meaning more than two) categories using b8's current code base and probably, b8 will never support more than two categories. Perhaps, a fork or a complete re-write would be better than implementing such a feature. Anyway, I don't close my mind to multiple categories in b8. Feel free to tell me how multiple categories could be implementented in b8 or how a multiple-category version using the same code base (sharing a common abstract class?) could be written.
What about a list with words to ignore?
```````````````````````````````````````
Some people suggested to introduce a list with words that b8 will simply ignore. Like "and", "or", "the", and so on. I don't think this is very meaningful.
First, it would just work for the particular language that has been stored in the list. Speaking of my homepage, most of my spam is English, almost all my ham is German. So I would have to maintain a list with the probably less interesting words for at least two languages. Additionally, I get spam in Chinese, Japanese and Cyrillic writing or something else I can't read as well. What word should be ignored in those texts? |br|
Second, why should we ever exclude words? Who tells us those words are *actually* meaningless? If a word appears both in ham and spam, it's rating will be near 0.5 and so, it won't be used for the final calculation if a appropriate minimum deviation was set. So b8 will exclude it anyway without any blacklist. And think of this: if we excluded a word of which we only *think* it doesn't mean anything but it actually does appear more often in ham or spam, the results will get even worse.
So why should we care about things we do not have to care about? ;-)
Why is it called "b8"?
``````````````````````
The initial name for the filter was (damn creative!) "bayes-php". There were two main reasons for searching another name: 1. "bayes-php" sucks. 2. the `PHP License <http://php.net/license/3_01.txt>`_ says the PHP guys do not like when the name of a script written in PHP contains the word "PHP". Read the `License FAQ <http://www.php.net/license/index.php#faq-lic>`_ for a reasonable argumentation about this.
Luckily, `Tobias Lang <http://langt.net/>`_ proposed the new name "b8". And these are the reasons why I chose this name:
- "bayes-php" is a "b" followed by 8 letters.
- "b8" is short and handy. Additionally, there was no program with the name "b8" or "bate"
- The English verb "to bate" means "to decrease" and that's what b8 does: it decreases the number of spam entries in your weblog or guestbook!
- "b8" just sounds way cooler than "bayes-php" ;-)
About the database
------------------
The database layout
```````````````````
The database layout is quite simple. It's just key:value for everything stored. There are three "internal" variables stored as normal tokens (but all containing a ``*`` which is always used as a split character by the lexer, so we can't get collisions):
**bayes*dbversion**
This indicates the database's "version". The first versions of b8 did not set this. Version "2" indicates that we have a database created by a b8 version already storing `the "lastseen" parameter`_.
**bayes*texts.ham**
The number of ham texts learned.
**bayes*texts.spam**
The number of spam texts learned.
Each "normal" token is stored with it's literal name as the key and it's data as the value. The data consists of the count of the token in all ham and spam texts and the date when the token was used the last time, all in one string and separated by spaces. So we have the following scheme:
::
"token" => "count_ham count_spam lastseen"
The "lastseen" parameter
````````````````````````
Somebody looking at the code might be wondering why b8 stores this "lastseen" parameter. This value is not used for any calculation at the moment. Initially, it was intended to keep the database maintainable in a way that "old" data could be removed. When e. g. a token only appeared once in ham or spam and has not been seen for a year, one could simply delete it from the database. |br|
I actually never used this feature (does anybody?). So probably, some changes will be done to this one day. Perhaps, I find a way to include this data in the spamminess calculation in a meaningful way, or at least for some statistics. One could also make this optional to keep the calculation effort small if this is needed.
Feel free to send me any suggestions about this!
