Microsoft is working on this, it looks promising. http://research.microsoft.com/asirra/
As cool as ASIRRA is, and as awesome as it is that they help find homes for pets, it is more or less "a better CAPTCHA." I took the original post as a request for a manual for bot-detection techniques in addition to CAPTCHAs. I don't know of anything in one place on this topic, although I can think of things like Bayesian filters for the spam application as maybe a place to start. Incidentally, this paper just showed up on eprint.iacr.org . The author claims an automatic classifier between cats and dogs that can pass a 12-image ASIRRA challenge 10.3% of the time: Machine Learning Attacks Against the ASIRRA CAPTCHA Philippe Golle http://eprint.iacr.org/2008/126 -David Molnar
