• Computer algorithms that have the ability to learn without being

explicitly programmed

Email Spam Filter
Email Spam Filter

• Hardest part is to identify the rules based on which the filtering

• It will take a lot of trial and error to come up with the set of rules that
works effectively

• Also when the spammers change their strategy, we will have to do it

all again…
