Bayesian matching tokenizes the description on whitespace. Each time you assign a transaction whose description contains a particular token the count on the corresponding token-account pair is incremented (and the token-account pair is created if it doesn’t already exist). There’s no filtering applied to the tokens; that might be a useful enhancement. Matching is accomplished by finding all of the token-account pairs matching the tokens in the transaction’s description and then summing the counts by account. The account with the highest sum is assigned as the match.
