Thanks, yeah. I was actually looking at some of the Bayesian modules to see if they could help me determine if the spreadsheet had a header row. I couldn't quite figure out how to do it, though. And there seems to be two different Bayesian modules,the one you mentioned and this one: AI::NaiveBayes

I'm not sure which to use or if they do anything different.

Here is the code I was experimenting with:


my $classifier = AI::NaiveBayes->train(
    {
        attributes => {
            phone => 1, 'last name' => 1,  'fname' => 1, mobile => 1
        },
        labels => ['has header']
    },
);

# Classify a feature vector
my $result = $classifier->classify({fname => 5});

# $result is now a AI::NaiveBayes::Classification object
my @predictors = $result->find_predictors;

I wasn't sure where to go from there or how to better train it.
