Abstract :
In this paper, we propose a hybrid generative discriminative framework for the challenging problem of spam emails filtering using both textual and visual features. Our framework is based on building probabilistic Support Vector Machines (SVMs) kernels from mixture of Langevin distributions. Through empirical experiments, we demonstrate the effectiveness and the merits of the proposed learning framework.
