Match Points Question

["Thomas Tavaris J \(Tavaris\)" <tjthomas () LGSInnovations com>]

Hello Folks,

Near the top of the "nmap-os-db" file, the Match Point values for the
various probing tests are listed. Could anyone tell how these values
were assigned? Which criteria were used in choosing them? Were any
formal methods used? I am studying the effectiveness of various
combinations of probing tests wanted to further understand the OS
matching algorithm. Thanks!
