Saurav Kumar developed two tools as part of an internship at LinkedIn to help identify spam text. The first tool classifies spam by tabulating scores from different classifiers. The second tool computes the contribution of each word towards the overall spam score, allowing users to see which specific words are causing a text to be classified as spam. It works by modifying words and reclassifying to measure score changes. The tools provide insights into classifier performance and help find spam text more efficiently.
