This comment is going to collect the most votes yet is predicted to be Bad: 0.9320 - Good: 0.0800


I am very torn. I really want to upvote this comment, but am equally wanting you to be proved wrong.


This is somewhat interesting. If what is stated in the comment itself is true then that means the poster had to solve to find x and y such that 'This comment is going to collect the most votes yet is predicted to be Bad: x - Good: y' would give Bad: x and Good: y as the output when passed through the neural net. Maybe they also manipulated other parts of the comment to find x and y.


Though a comment is not a post title.


Does this not add up to 1.0 by the way.


I didn’t read the code in the post and don’t have any deep familiarity with machine learning, but I have implemented a naive bayesian classifier to do something similar for tweets. The scores you get from that method don’t add up to 1 either.
