awwwwwn I'm jealous

Voilà... false positive can only be reduced. Training can be done with the spam threads already created on NL so far (though the small size of the sample (data rows) can easily lead to overfitting if used continuously ). I'm only advocating for more features (data columns such as the logs mentioned above) just to bring up up dimensions a little bit without invoking the curse of dimensionality. I know how we feel when these apps take more info than we think is required but this one would be for a good course.

I don't think Nairaland take geolocation details, your browser would have detected that. Unlike major forums out there, Nairaland doesn't really streamline user experience to reflect their location. The argument would be that it doesn't need that seeing that it doesn't make location based suggestions. But then again, some of us out here sometimes get confused with the time display.

Like I said, Seun needs your help regarding these Chinese guys. Nairaland needs you, Madam Vicky. Please, help us! This forum belongs to all of us and not only Seun. Please!

_{Where you on Nairaland during the dark age (around 2014/15 when the site collapsed for days and everyone had to go to other social networks to ask questions)? Do you want that to happen again?}

Na real dark age. lol. I was a member but it was one of those period I was off NL for a while so didn't realize until I saw threads about it. You can't guilt trip me with that.

Bantino:
Good morning to us all

Please I want to use this opportunity to announce that our game show slated for today will be postponed until further notice. This is as a result of the none availability of my fellow coordinator (Maggilove). I just hope and pray that she's alright as her phone number has been switched off since Thursday and no response from her as regards all emails sent to her email address.

A new date for the game show will be announced later.

If anyone can help us reach Maggilove in anyway, please do as soon as possible. Thank you!!!

Bantino:
Please has anyone made contact or heard from Maggilove?

let it slide

WoundedLamb:
Hhmm... great! Our leader is very much on top of this!

But are you suggesting training the system with live data? I think the Chinese would have finished building their empire before that yields any positive result! To really combat these guys using ML, Seun will need a pre-trained model with the weights stored in the DB. In other words, he needs to have a collection of already classified texts (spam and genuin) and pass them through the neural network till the optimal weights per node is calculated. He can then store this weights in the DB so that the system can use this to detect spam posts. Apart from the text itself, I think training with log details like users country (which will eventually be collected using HTML3 geolocation API on the live server), session time, etc. will help ensure reliability. But like I said, there'll still a be a very few genuine post that will fall through the cracks.

Yes, Seun might be working on this already but you can also reach out to him to make suggestions or even help out if possible

WoundedLamb:
ML is a good suggestion and it will be relatively easy for Seun to implement cause there are already known networks that can handle such cases and Nairaland runs on Python (as I learned) so he'll only need to install the Anaconda framework to kick off. However, he will need to feed the ML network with more data than Nairaland presently collects if he really wants detect these guys. Again, it will still be somewhere tricky cause even with the best binary classification algorithms, genuine posts can still easily be classified as spam.

About the bolded I am not kidding let me refresh ur memory

Look at the old N and compare it to now and some other changes

If you go back to page 1 of this thread take note of how the quotes look like compared to now
