Old-school theory is a new force | CNET News.com: "Toward the end of the year, Intel will also come out with a toolkit for constructing Bayesian applications. One experiment deals with cameras that can warn doctors that patients may soon suffer strokes. The company will discuss these developments later this week at its Developer Forum.

Despite its popularity today, Bayesian theory wasn't always universally accepted: Only a decade ago, Bayesian researchers dwelled on the fringes of their professions. Since then, however, improved mathematical models, faster computers and valid results from experiments have given new credibility to the school of thought."
