Özet

In recent years, the popularity of Short Message Service (SMS) on mobile phones has surged due to technological advancements and the growing prevalence of content-based advertising. However, this has also led to a surge in spam SMS, which can inundate one’s handset at any time and potentially result in the theft of personal information. Researchers have explored a range of options to combat spam SMS, including content-based machine learning algorithms and stylometric approaches. While filtering spam emails has proven to be effective, detecting spam SMS presents a unique set of challenges due to the presence of idioms, abbreviations, and well-known terms and phrases that are frequently used in legitimate messages. This study aims to examine and assess different classification techniques by utilizing datasets gathered from previous research studies. The primary emphasis is on comparing conventional Machine Learning (ML) methods. This study specifically investigates the efficacy of classification algorithms, including Logistic Regression (LR), Naïve Bayes (NB), and Random Forest (RF), in accurately identifying spam SMS messages. The results of our research demonstrate that the RF classifier outperforms other traditional ML techniques in the detection of spam SMS messages. This paper thoroughly examines diverse classification techniques employed in spam detection. The knowledge derived from this study has the potential to advance the development of more effective systems for detecting spam SMS messages. Ultimately, this would enhance the security and privacy of mobile phone users. © The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2024.
