Answer

Previous email messages.

14Question

What does a spam filter identify to classify emails?

Answer

Recurring patterns.

15Question

What does a spam filter predict for a new message?

Answer

Whether it is spam.

16Question

From what data does a recommendation system learn?

Answer

Previous purchasing data.

17Question

What does a recommendation system use to suggest new products?

Answer
