I know they 're not. But  but , you know  So because what we 're doing is pretty strange and complicated , we don't really know what the effect is  at the other end.
Uh - huh. Mm - hmm.
So ,  um ,  my thought was maybe  I mean , they 're not used as probabilities , but the log probabilities  we 're taking advantage of the fact that something like log probabilities has more of a Gaussian shape than Gaus - than  probabilities , and so we can model them better. So ,  in a way we 're taking advantage of the fact that they 're probabilities , because they 're this quantity that looks kind of Gaussian when you take it 's log. So ,   uh , maybe  maybe it would have a  a reasonable effect to do that.
Mm - hmm.
