Abstract: Today’s internet scenario, spam email is a major problem of internet users. The spam field has two different types namely email text spam and image spam. Now a day’s email spam filters are available in market, but the filters are capable to detect the text based spam only. Spammers are using intelligent ways to bypass the spam filters like embedding the spam text in an image so that spam filters are not able to detect the image spam. This paper analyses the various attributes of image spam with the careful attention given with the existing system. The proposed method uses the fast convergence particle swarm optimization technique which uses the diversity location of each particle by presenting a new classifier. Experimental results show that proposed method has achieved better accuracy than the other existing methods.
