abstract = {This paper addresses the email spam filtering problem by proposing an approach based on two levels text semantic analysis. In the first level, a deep learning technique, based on Word2Vec is used to categorize emails by specific domains (e.g., health, education, finance, etc.). This enables a separate conceptual view for spams in each domain. In the second level, we extract a set of latent topics from email contents and represent them by rules to summarize the email content into compact topics discriminating spam from legitimate emails in an efficient way. The experimental study shows promising results in term of the precision of the spam detection. © 2020, Springer Nature Switzerland AG.},

abstract = {In this paper, we explore the use of a text semantic analysis to improve the accuracy of spam detection. We propose a method based on two semantic level analysis. In the first level, we categorize emails by specific domains (e.g., Health, Education, Finance, etc.) to enable a separate conceptual view for spams in each domain. In the second level, we combine a set of manually-specified and automatically-extracted semantic features for spam detection in each domain. These features are meant to summarize the email content into compact topics discriminating spam from non-spam emails in an efficient way. We show that the proposed method enables a better spam detection compared to existing methods based on bag-of-words (BoW) and semantic content, and leads to more interpretable results. © 2020},
