Senior Project Notice

This repository was created for a senior project in ENGT 375 Applied Machine Learning at Old Dominion University. It is provided for educational and research demonstration purposes only. It is not intended for production use, security filtering, or making real-world spam/phishing decisions. Always use established security tools for operational email protection.

spam-classifier — GGUF

Educational Use Only Created as a senior capstone project for ENGT 375: Applied Machine Learning at Old Dominion University (Spring 2026). Not intended for production use.

A fully merged, standalone GGUF of LiquidAI/LFM2.5-1.2B-Instruct fine-tuned with LoRA to classify emails as SPAM, HAM, or PHISHING.

No separate adapter or base model needed — download and run directly.

Provided Files

The system prompt is baked into the model's chat template — most clients (LM Studio, Ollama, llama.cpp via /v1/chat/completions) apply it automatically.

Example Output

Input:

Classify this email as SPAM, HAM, or PHISHING.

Email:
Congratulations! You have won $1,000,000. Click here to claim your prize.

Output:

SPAM

This email exhibits classic spam indicators: an unrealistic prize claim,
urgency to "click here," and no sender context. The promise of $1,000,000
is a common social engineering tactic used to lure clicks.
