Abstract
Social media platform plays a major role in everyone’s day-to-day life activities. Twitter is one of the vast growing platforms but it is also subjected to attacks such as Spamming and Combat Twitter attacks. The spamming is the use of the system to send an unsolicited message, especially the advertisement, sending messages repeatedly on same site which leads to major loss for customers and organization. In literature, the existing techniques for detecting the twitter spam text tweet suffer due to an issue such as limited work performance and data sets which leads to inefficiency of system. In order to solve these problems, we proposed a framework to detect the text-based spam tweets using Naive Bayes Classification algorithm and Artificial Neural Network. Performance study of these two algorithms shows that Artificial Neural Network performs better than Naive Bayes Classification algorithm.
