ABSTRACT:
A web spam page classifier is described that identifies web spam pages based on features of a search query and web page pair. The features can be extracted from training instances and a training algorithm can be employed to develop the classifier. Pages identified as web spam pages can be demoted and/or removed from a relevancy ranked list.
