ABSTRACT
Spam email filtering is essential for cybersecurity to prevent
users from receiving harmful messages. This project leverages
deep learning techniques, specifically RNNs and LSTM
networks, to improve spam detection by analysing email text.
The model identifies spam signals, processes text data, and
uses word embeddings for classification, achieving high
accuracy in distinguishing spam from legitimate emails.
INTRODUCTION

Email is widely used for communication


but often misused for spam and phishing.
Over half of email traffic is spam. Spam
emails can cause privacy breaches and
financial loss. Traditional spam filters face
challenges due to spammers' evolving
tactics. This project explores deep learning
models, like RNNs and LSTMs, to
enhance spam detection accuracy and
flexibility.
LITERATURE SURVEY
Spam email detection has evolved from rule-based filters to machine learning
methods like Naive Bayes and SVM. These methods had limitations in
handling complex language patterns. Recent advances involve deep learning,
with RNNs and LSTMs capturing contextual details in text. Transformer
models like BERT and GPT have also improved NLP tasks but may be
resource-intensive for spam filtering. These models often use Naive Bayes,
SVM, and Decision Trees, but they require frequent updates to handle
evolving spam tactics.

Techniques Used in Spam Detection:
Naive Bayes Classifier: Assumes that each word's occurrence in an email is independent of others and
calculates the likelihood of it being spam.
Support Vector Machine (SVM) : Classifies emails into spam or non-spam based on a hyperplane that
maximizes the margin between different classes.
Random Forest: Combines multiple decision trees to classify emails based on various features like
subject line, content, and sender's information .
Tools and Libraries for Spam Detection:
SpamAssassin: A widely-used open-source spam filter that
uses various techniques, including rule-based analysis and
Bayesian filtering.
Scikit-learn: A popular Python library that can be used to
build machine learning models for spam detection.
TensorFlow: Can be used for deep learning approaches,
including building neural networks for more complex spam
detection.
ADVANTAGES

Context-aware detection using LSTMs.

Robustness against spam obfuscation


tactics.

Higher accuracy than traditional models.

Reduced need for frequent manual updates.


FUTURE SCOPE
• Integrating transformer models (e.g., BERT, GPT) for better contextual
understanding.
• Developing a real-time spam detection system.
• Using adaptive learning for new spam patterns.
• Deploying in a cloud-based environment with user feedback
mechanisms.
CONCLUSION
This project demonstrates a reliable and
flexible LSTM-based model for spam email
detection. The model shows high accuracy and
can adapt to new spam tactics without frequent
updates. Future advancements may include
deploying as a cloud API or integrating
transformers for enhanced performance.
