Abstract: Email Spam Detection

Email spam, often referred to as junk email, is a major challenge in modern


communication. With an increasing volume of unsolicited and harmful emails,
filtering them effectively is essential. This project focuses on building an Email
Spam Detection System using Python to classify emails as spam or non-spam
(ham) using Natural Language Processing (NLP) and Machine Learning
techniques.

The system will analyze the content of emails and use classification algorithms
such as Naive Bayes, Logistic Regression, and Support Vector Machines (SVM) to
detect spam. By training the model on a labeled dataset, it will learn to
recognize patterns associated with spam, such as common keywords, phishing
links, and suspicious formatting. Python libraries like scikit-learn, NLTK, and
Pandas will be used to preprocess the email data and train the machine learning
model.

This project demonstrates a practical application of machine learning to enhance


email security by filtering out unwanted and potentially harmful messages,
thereby improving email efficiency and user experience.
Features:
1.Natural Language Processing (NLP) for Text Preprocessing
Preprocesses email content using tokenization, stop word removal, stemming, and
lemmatization to standardize the text for analysis.
2.Machine Learning Algorithms
Implements popular classification algorithms like Naive Bayes, Logistic Regression, and
Support Vector Machines (SVM) to classify emails as spam or ham.
3.Dataset Training
Trains the model on a large dataset of labeled spam and non-spam emails, such as the Enron
Email Dataset or SpamAssassin Public Corpus.
4.Feature Extraction using TF-IDF
Extracts key features from email text using Term Frequency-Inverse Document Frequency
(TF-IDF) to capture important terms and their relevance in classifying emails.
5.Real-Time Email Classification
Allows users to input emails and get instant classification results, determining whether the
email is spam or legitimate.
