چکیده

In this paper a spam filtering method is proposed. We focus on user behavior that most email users browse the Web. The method reduces troublesome maintenance of the spam filter, since the filter learns from Web browsing behavior in the background. The method uses Web browsing behavior of each user to learn ham words. Ham words are picked up from browsed Web pages using TF-IDF and stored in the database called ham words list. For each received email, the method extracts keywords from the email, including Web pages of the URLs. If some keywords are in the ham words list, the email is treated as a ham. In our experiments, several spam emails which cannot be detected by a Bayesian filter are detected as spams.

Web Spam Classification: a Few Features Worth More

In this paper we investigate how much various classes of Web spam features, some requiring very high computational effort, add to the classification accuracy. We realize that advances in machine learning, an area that has received less attention in the adversarial IR community, yields more improvement than new features and result in low cost yet accurate spam filters. Our original contributions...

Semi-Supervised Learning: A Comparative Study for Web Spam and Telephone User Churn

We compare a wide range of semi-supervised learning techniques both for Web spam filtering and for telephone user churn classification. Semisupervised learning has the assumption that the label of a node in a graph is similar to those of its neighbors. In this paper we measure this phenomenon both for Web spam and telco churn. We conclude that spam is often linked to spam while honest pages are...
