Abstract

The evolution of technology has brought new challenges and opportunities for the different dimensions of feature space. The higher dimension of the feature space is one of the most critical issues in e-mail classification problems due to accuracy considerations. The problem of finding the subset features that significantly influence the performance of e-mail spam classification has become one of the important challenges. This paper proposes to overcome such a problem, an intelligent approach to Binary Differential Evolution Support Vector Machine (BDE-SVM). The proposed approach enhances the Binary Differential Evolution (BDE) algorithm based on the correlation coefficient as a fitness function to select the significant subset feature evaluated by an SVM classifier. To our best of knowledge, the correlation coefficient as the fitness function has not been used in the differential evolution algorithm before. The selected subset feature is used to assess the most features that contribute to the reliability of the email spam classification. The finding of the enhanced BDE is to present a powerful accuracy. The tests were conducted using “Spambase” and “SpamAssassin.” Identified benchmark datasets are to assess the feasibility of the proposed solution. The result with full-feature accuracy was 93.55 percent compared to the proposed BDE-SVM approach, which is 93.99 percent. Empirical findings also show that our method is capable of effectively increasing the number of features required to enhance the reliability of the email spam classification.
