spammy : Spam filtering at your service
spammy powers the web app https://plino.herokuapp.com
- train the classifier on your own dataset to classify your emails into spam or ham
- Dead simple to use. See usage
- Blazingly fast once the classifier is trained. (See benchmarks)
- Custom exceptions raised so that when you miss something, spammy tells you where did you go wrong in a graceful way
- Written in uncomplicated
python - Built on top of the giant shoulders of nltk
- Your data directory structure should be something similar to
$ tree /home/tasdik/Dropbox/projects/spammy/examples/test_dataset
