Email Classification is a Machine Learning problem that falls under the category of Supervised Learning.
This mini-project of Email Classification is inspired by J.K. Rowling’s publishing of a book under a pen-name. Udacity’s “Introduction to Machine Learning” provides a comprehensive study of the algorithms and the project.
