Ask HN: How does Gmail detect promotional emails? 1 points by sameid 11y ago ↗ HN I've always wondered what the magic code was that Gmail used to detect Promotional Emails. Is it some super Regex or something far more complex?
[–] noir-york 11y ago ↗ Almost certainly some statistical method - perhaps Bayesian. [–] sameid 11y ago ↗ Thanks for the reply, I assume that would require a large set of actionable data? I'll definetly start reading up on Bayesian Statistics.
