Abstract
According to some embodiments, a method performed by a classification scanner comprises receiving an electronic message and determining whether the electronic message includes an express indication from the user indicating that a classification applies to the electronic message. In response to determining that the electronic message does not include the express indication that the classification applies to the electronic message, the message further comprises sending the electronic message to a machine learning scanner. The machine learning scanner is adapted to use a machine learning policy to determine whether the classification applies to the electronic message.
Claims17
A method performed by a classification scanner, the method comprising:
- receiving an electronic message from a user;
- determining whether the electronic message includes an express indication from the user indicating that a classification applies to the electronic message;
- and
- in response to determining that the electronic message does not include the express indication that the classification applies to the electronic message, sending the electronic message to a machine learning scanner, the machine learning scanner adapted to identify a machine learning policy based upon preferences of the user as to which characteristics of the electronic message should cause the electronic message to be handled in a particular way;
- and
- in response to identifying the machine learning policy, using the machine learning policy to determine whether the classification applies to the electronic message,
- wherein sending the electronic message to the machine learning scanner is further in response to determining that at least a threshold number of electronic messages have been provided to a machine learning trainer adapted to determine the machine learning policy used by the machine learning scanner.
One or more non-transitory computer-readable media comprising logic that, when executed by processing circuitry, causes the processing circuitry to:
- receive an electronic message from a user;
- determine whether the electronic message includes an express indication from the user indicating that a classification applies to the electronic message;
- and
- in response to determining that the electronic message does not include the express indication that the classification applies to the electronic message, send the electronic message to a machine learning scanner, the machine learning scanner adapted to identify a machine learning policy based upon preferences of the user as to which characteristics of the electronic message should cause the electronic message to be handled in a particular way;
- and
- in response to identifying the machine learning policy, using the machine learning policy to determine whether the classification applies to the electronic message,
- wherein sending the electronic message to the machine learning scanner is further in response to determining that at least a threshold number of electronic messages have been provided to a machine learning trainer adapted to determine the machine learning policy used by the machine learning scanner.
An apparatus, comprising:
- one or more interfaces;
- and
- processing circuitry operable to:
- receive an electronic message;
- determine whether the electronic message includes an express indication from a user indicating that a classification applies to the electronic message;
- and
- in response to determining that the electronic message does not include the express indication that the classification applies to the electronic message, send the electronic message to a machine learning scanner via the one or more interfaces, the machine learning scanner adapted to identify a machine learning policy based upon preferences of the user as to which characteristics of the electronic message should cause the electronic message to be handled in a particular way;
- and
- in response to identifying the machine learning policy, using the machine learning policy to determine whether the classification applies to the electronic message,
- wherein the electronic message is sent to the machine learning scanner further in response to determining that at least a threshold number of electronic messages have been provided to a machine learning trainer adapted to determine the machine learning policy used by the machine learning scanner.
