## Dataset Structure |
|
|
|
### Data Instances |
|
|
|
- The `text` config normalizes all character sets to utf8 and dumps the |
|
MIME tree as a JSON list of lists. |
|
- The `unprocessed` config does not parse messages at all, leaving the |
|
full headers and content as binary. |
|
|
|
### Data Fields |
|
|
|
- `label`: `spam` or `ham` |
|
- `group`: SpamAssassin has grouped these samples into categories |
|
{'hard_ham', 'spam_2', 'spam', 'easy_ham', 'easy_ham_2'} |
|
- `text`: normalized text of the message bodies |
|
- `raw`: full binary headers and contents of messages |
|
|
|

## Dataset Creation |
|
|
|
### Curation Rationale |
|
|
|
It is hoped this dataset can help verify that modern NLP tools can solve |
|
old NLP problems. |
|
|
|
### Source Data |
|
|
|
#### Initial Data Collection and Normalization |
|
|
|
[The upstream corpus description](https://spamassassin.apache.org/old/publiccorpus/readme.html) |
|
goes into detail on collection methods. The work here to recover text bodies |
|
is largely done with [email.parser](https://docs.python.org/3/library/email.parser.html) |
|
and [ftfy](https://pypi.org/project/ftfy/). |
