bayes: A Naive-Bayes classifier for node.js https://github.com/ttezel/bayes

Natural.js: Another promising text classifier collection written in Javascript. Like  ttezel/bayes, this library will require adaption to store its data using storage.StorageArea.

D3: https://d3js.org/ for filter bubble visualizations

We will also investigate other classifiers but the goal of this project is the framework and proof of concept, not a specific classification algorithm. We will want contributors to be able to contribute new classifiers, so each bubble dataset will be tagged with the classifier it works with.
