Abstract
In this paper, the machine learning algorithm Naive Bayes Classifier is applied to the Kaggle spam mails dataset to classify the emails in our inbox as spam or ham. The dataset is made up of two main attributes: type and text. The target variable "Type" has two factors: ham and spam. The text variable contains the text messages that will be classified as spam or ham. The results are obtained by employing two different Laplace values. It is up to the decision maker to select error tolerance in ham and spam messages derived from two different Laplace values. Computing software R is used for data analysis.
期刊介绍:
Annals of Data Science (ADS) publishes cutting-edge research findings, experimental results and case studies of data science. Although Data Science is regarded as an interdisciplinary field of using mathematics, statistics, databases, data mining, high-performance computing, knowledge management and virtualization to discover knowledge from Big Data, it should have its own scientific contents, such as axioms, laws and rules, which are fundamentally important for experts in different fields to explore their own interests from Big Data. ADS encourages contributors to address such challenging problems at this exchange platform. At present, how to discover knowledge from heterogeneous data under Big Data environment needs to be addressed. ADS is a series of volumes edited by either the editorial office or guest editors. Guest editors will be responsible for call-for-papers and the review process for high-quality contributions in their volumes.
