Conventional filters using email header and body information equally judge whether an incoming email is spam or not. However this is unrealistic in everyday life because each person has different criteria to judge what is spam or not. To resolve this problem, we consider user preference information as well as email category information derived from the email content. In this paper, we have developed a personalized anti-spam system using ontologies constructed from rules derived in a data mining process. The reason why traditional content-based filters are not applicable to the proposed experimental situation is described. In also, several experiments constructing classifiers to decide email category and comparing classification rule learners are performed. Especially, an ID3 decision tree algorithm improved the overall accuracy around 17% compared to a conventional SVM text miner on the decision of email category. Some discussions about the axioms generated from the experimental dataset are given too.

In this paper, it would be shown that individuals can have different responses to the same email based on their preferences through computing the distributions of user clusters' email responses from clustering results based on email users' preference information. This paper presents an approach that incorporates user preferences to construct an anti-spam mail system, which is different from the conventional content-based ones. We consider email category information derived from the email content as well as user preference information. We also build a user preference ontology to formally represent the important concepts and rules derived from a data mining process and then apply a rule optimization procedure to exclude unnecessary rules. Experimental results show that our user preference based system achieves good performance in terms of accuracy, the rules derived from the system and human comprehensibility.

This paper describes a two-phase intelligent method for filtering spam mail based on textual information and hyperlinks. Scince the body of spam mail has little text information, it provides insufficient hints to distinguish spam mails from legitimate mails. To resolve this problem, we follows hyperlinks contained in the email body, fetches contents of a remote webpage, and extracts hints (i.e., features) from original email body and fetched webpages. We divided hints into two kinds of information: definite information (sender`s information and definite spam keyword lists) and less definite textual information (words or phrases, and particular features of email). In filtering spam mails, definite information is used first, and then less definite textual information is applied. In our experiment, the method of fetching web pages achieved an improvement of F-measure by 9.4% over the method of using on original email header and body only.

This study examined the perceptions of Myanmar university students and professors regarding the status and necessity of higher education programs in fashion. Data were collected from professors in textile engineering at Yangon Technological University and Myanmar university students. Closed- and open-ended questions were asked either through interviews or by email. The responses were analyzed using keyword extraction and categorization, and descriptive statistics(closed questions). Generally, the professors perceived higher education, as well as the cultural industries including art and fashion, as important for Myanmar's social and economic development. According to the students interests in pursuing a degree in textile were limited, despite the high interest in fashion. Low wages in the apparel industry and lack of fashion degrees that meet the demand of students were cited as reasons. The demand was high for educational programs in fashion product development, fashion design, pattern-making, fashion marketing, branding, management, costume history, and cultural studies. Students expected to find their future career in textiles and clothing factories. Many students wanted to be hired by global fashion brands for higher salaries and training for advanced knowledge and technical skills. They perceived advanced fashion education programs will have various positive effects on Myanmar's national economy.
