Factorial design analysis applied to the performance of SMS anti-spam filtering systems

作者:

Highlights:

• An anti-spam filtering system for SMS is proposed.

• Different system parameters are evaluated through factorial design analysis.

• The optimal configuration has reached over 98% classification accuracy.

• The number of features increases system performance but adds computational cost.

• Linguistic techniques do not represent significant performance boost for some setups.
