E-Mail Spam Filtering

Abstract

Abstract: E-mail is that the most typical method of communication because of its ability to get, the rapid modification of messages and low cost of distribution. E-mail is one among the foremost secure medium for online communication and transferring data or messages through the net. An overgrowing increase in popularity, the quantity of unsolicited data has also increased rapidly. Spam causes traffic issues and bottlenecks that limit the quantity of memory and bandwidth, power and computing speed. To filtering data, different approaches exist which automatically detect and take away these untenable messages. There are several numbers of email spam filtering technique like Knowledge-based technique, Clustering techniques, Learning-based technique, Heuristic processes so on. For data filtering, various approaches exist that automatically detect and suppress these indefensible messages. This paper illustrates a survey of various existing email spam filtering system regarding Machine Learning Technique (MLT) like Naive Bayes, SVM, K-Nearest Neighbor, Bayes Additive Regression, KNN Tree, and rules. Henceforth here we give the classification, evaluation and comparison of some email spam filtering system and summarize the scenario regarding accuracy rate of various existing approaches. Keywords: e-mail spam, unsolicited bulk email, spam filtering methods.
