What it does
Gone Fishin' is a website that takes your email body as input and determines whether or not the email is a phishing scam.
How we built it
Gone Fishin' leverages Machine Learning a machine learning model, trained using a Random Forest Classifier, to determine whether or not the email is a phishing scam.
Challenges we ran into
Connecting our application to the website caused some trouble. We also tried several different methods to train the model. We first tried to use a Gaussian Naive Bayes Classifier, then the Multinomial Naive Bayes Classifier, and we finally landed on the Random Forest Classifier.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
Our machine-learning model was trained to reach 96% accuracy.
What we learned
We learned how to connect front-end and back-end, how to train machine learning models, and how to make a website.
