As I mention in another comment, the data crunching is completely separate and likely to generate lots of specific datapoints that are only relevant to me. This is where things get really hard to generalize/make easy to use widely.

If this doesn't scare you away, then send me a message.

Likely pre-requisites are:

  • Programming experience
  • Experience with Java
  • Willingness to set up a local database server (I use MySQL)
  • Familiarity with the various ways to use Bayes's theorem (I recommend Bayesian Artificial Intelligence and of course, EY's article) and how things can go wrong
