    Email is an important communication that the Internet has made available. One of the significance is seen in the great ease in which immediate transmission of internet data is done during email transmission. This great ease emerges with a major issue which is the continuous increase in spam emails. Thus, the need for a spam email detector. The versatility and adaptability of the nature of spam influenced past innovations. However, previous techniques have been weakened. This study introduces an email detection model that is designed based on use of an improved version of the grasshopper optimization algorithm to train a Multilayer Perceptron in classifying emails as ham and spam. To validate the performance of EGOA, executed on the spam email dataset are utilized, then the performance was relatively compared with popular search algorithms. The implementation demonstrates that EGOA introduces the best results with high accuracy of up to 96.09%

    The electronic mailing system has in recent years become a timely and convenient way for the exchange of multimedia messages across the cyberspace and computer networks in the global sphere. This proliferation has prompted most (if not all) inboxes receiving junk email messages on numerous occasions every day. Due to these surges in spam attacks, a number of approaches have been proposed to lessen the attacks across the globe significantly. The effect of previous detection techniques has been weakened due to the adaptive nature of unsolicited email spam. Hence, resolving spam detection (SD) problem is a challenging task. A regular class of the Artificial Neural Network (ANN) called Multi-Layer Perceptron (MLP) was proposed in this study for email SD. The main idea of this research is to train a neural network by leveraging a new nature-inspired metaheuristic algorithm referred to as a Grasshopper Optimization Algorithm (GOA) to categorize emails as ham and spam. Evaluation of its performance was performed on an often-used standard dataset. The results showed that the proposed MLP model trained by GOA achieves high accuracy of up to 94.25% performance compared to other optimization

    Due to the significant ongoing expansion of computer networks in our lives nowadays, the demand for network security and protection from cyber-attacks has never been more imperative to either clients or businesses alike, which signifies the key role of cyber intrusion detection systems in network security. This article proposes a cyber-intrusion detecting system classification with MLP trained by a hybrid metaheuristic algorithm and feature selection based on multi-objective wrapper method. The classifier, named as HADMLP is trained using a hybridization of the artificial bee colony along with the dragonfly algorithm. A multi-objective artificial bee colony model which is wrapper-based is used for selection of feature. Hence, collective name of the proposed technique referred as MO-HADMLP. For performance evaluation, the proposed method was assessed using ISCX 2012 and KDD CUP 99 datasets. The results of our experiments indicate a significant enhancement to the efficacy of network intrusion detection when compared to other approaches
