1. Title: SPAM E-mail Database

2. Sources:
(a) Creators: Mark Hopkins, Erik Reeber, George Forman, Jaap Suermondt
Hewlett-Packard Labs, 1501 Page Mill Rd., Palo Alto, CA 94304
(b) Donor: George Forman (gforman at nospam hpl.hp.com) 650-857-7835
(c) Generated: June-July 1999

3. Past Usage:
(a) Hewlett-Packard Internal-only Technical Report. External forthcoming.
(b) Determine whether a given email is spam or not.
(c) ~7% misclassification error.
False positives (marking good mail as spam) are very undesirable.
If we insist on zero false positives in the training/testing set,
20-25% of the spam passed through the filter.

4. Relevant Information:
The "spam" concept is diverse: advertisements for products/web
sites, make money fast schemes, chain letters, pornography...
Our collection of spam e-mails came from our postmaster and
individuals who had filed spam. Our collection of non-spam
e-mails came from filed work and personal e-mails, and hence
the word 'george' and the area code '650' are indicators of
non-spam. These are useful when constructing a personalized
spam filter. One would either have to blind such non-spam
indicators or get a very wide collection of non-spam to
generate a general purpose spam filter.

For background on spam:
Cranor, Lorrie F., LaMacchia, Brian A. Spam!
Communications of the ACM, 41(8):74-83, 1998.

5. Number of Instances: 4601 (1813 Spam = 39.4%)

6. Number of Attributes: 58 (57 continuous, 1 nominal class label)

7. Attribute Information:
The last column of 'spambase.data' denotes whether the e-mail was
considered spam (1) or not (0), i.e. unsolicited commercial e-mail.
Most of the attributes indicate whether a particular word or
character was frequently occuring in the e-mail. The run-length
attributes (55-57) measure the length of sequences of consecutive
capital letters. For the statistical measures of each attribute,
see the end of this file. Here are the definitions of the attributes:

48 continuous real [0,100] attributes of type word_freq_WORD
= percentage of words in the e-mail that match WORD,
i.e. 100 * (number of times the WORD appears in the e-mail) /
total number of words in e-mail. A "word" in this case is any
string of alphanumeric characters bounded by non-alphanumeric
characters or end-of-string.

6 continuous real [0,100] attributes of type char_freq_CHAR
= percentage of characters in the e-mail that match CHAR,
i.e. 100 * (number of CHAR occurences) / total characters in e-mail

1 continuous real [1,...] attribute of type capital_run_length_average
= average length of uninterrupted sequences of capital letters

1 continuous integer [1,...] attribute of type capital_run_length_longest
= length of longest uninterrupted sequence of capital letters

1 continuous integer [1,...] attribute of type capital_run_length_total
= sum of length of uninterrupted sequences of capital letters
= total number of capital letters in the e-mail

1 nominal {0,1} class attribute of type spam
= denotes whether the e-mail was considered spam (1) or not (0),
i.e. unsolicited commercial e-mail.


8. Missing Attribute Values: None

9. Class Distribution:
Spam 1813 (39.4%)
Non-Spam 2788 (60.6%)
