Abstract

See full text

Disclosed are methods and apparatus for detecting spam hosts. In one embodiment, one or more graphs are generated using data obtained from a query log, where the one or more graphs include at least one of an anticlick graph or a view graph. Values of one or more syntactic features of the one or more graphs are ascertained. Values of one or more semantic features of the one or more graphs are determined by propagating categories from a web directory among nodes in each of the one or more graphs. Spam hosts are then detected based upon the values of the syntactic features and the semantic features.
