Summary
With the popularization of the Internet and the widespread application of e-mail in daily life and business activities, the problem of spam has become a problem that seriously affects user experience and network security. In order to effectively solve the spam problem, this paper proposes a spam filtering system based on machine learning. First, we collect a large amount of email data, including ham and spam, to construct a dataset for training and evaluation. Then, we extracted various features of emails, such as text content, sender information, email format, etc., and used these features as input to design a classification model based on machine learning algorithms.
In terms of model selection, we compare the performance of various machine learning algorithms such as Naive Bayes, Support Vector Machines, Decision Trees, Random Forests, and Deep Neural Networks. After experimental evaluation, we selected the algorithm with the best performance in evaluation indicators such as accuracy, recall, precision and F1-score as the final classification model. Meanwhile, in order to further improve the performance and generalization ability of the model, we employ techniques such as feature selection, model fusion, and hyperparameter tuning.
Finally, we apply the designed spam filtering system to actual email service scenarios, and verify its effectiveness and practicability in identifying and filtering spam. The experimental results show that the spam filtering system based on machine learning proposed in this paper has high recognition accuracy and low false positive rate, which can effectively reduce the troubles caused by spam to users and improve user communication experience.
This study provides a new solution for spam filtering technology, which has a good application prospect. At the same time, with the continuous development of machine learning technology, we believe that the future spam filtering system will achieve greater breakthroughs in performance, adaptability and intelligence.

1 Introduction
1.1 The problem and impact of spam
With the popularization of the Internet and the widespread application of e-mail in daily life and business activities, the problem of spam has become a problem that seriously affects user experience and network security.

Therefore, the identification and filtering of spam is an important research topic.

The traditional rule-based spam filtering technology often needs to manually set a large number of rules, which is difficult to adapt to the diversity and changing characteristics of spam. Machine learning technology can automatically learn an effective classification model from a large amount of mail data, which has stronger adaptability and generalization ability. By utilizing machine learning techniques, efficient and accurate spam filtering can be achieved.
