How does sklearn.svm.svc’s function predict_proba() work internally?

I am using sklearn.svm.svc from scikit-learn to do binary classification. I am using its predict_proba() function to get probability estimates. Can anyone tell me how predict_proba() internally calculates the probability?

Does the SVM in sklearn support incremental (online) learning?

I am currently in the process of designing a recommender system for text articles (a binary case of ‘interesting’ or ‘not interesting’). One of my specifications is that it should continuously update to changing trends.
