Detection and Prevention of Spam Mail with Semantics-based text classification of Collaborative and Content Filtering

Abstract

Eventhough, conventional technologies are quiet good in separating spam messages, still soo many measures have to be considered to make more accuracy in spam filtering. In this work, we worked towards detecting spam mails and filtering it during its transmission. We proposed Collaborative filtering approach hybrid with text classification (semantics based). The related feature are retrieved from the text content. Also, another filtering method known as Content-based filtering is proposed which filters the same spam mail with more precision and better accuracy. Along with the semantic texts the Content-based filtering filters the special symbols such as HTML tags, @,/etc. Results are compared and the accuracy of detecting spam e-mails of Content-based filters is more than that of Collaborative filters. Both Collaborative and Content-based filters perform keyword check available in the spam keyword database and detects whether the mail sent by the sender is genuine or spam. Genuine emails are sent successfully and the spam emails are blocked at the server side. Content-based email classification requires an understanding of both structural and semantic attributes of email. Conventional research is focussed on semantic properties through structural components of email. After analysing the emails as events (as a major subset of the class of email), a rich contextual test-bed representation for an understanding of the semantic attributes of emails has been devised. The event-based emails have traditionally been studied based on simple structural properties.

“…Selecting the features depends on a fitness function that relies on the gained accuracy utilizing a support vector machine (SVM). In [15], the author tried identifying spam mail and filtering it at the time of their communication. The Author devised a Collaborative filtering method hybridized with text classification (semantics related).…”
