Abstract:Abstract. Machine-learning-based Android malware classifiers perform badly on the detection of new malware, in particular, when they take API calls and permissions as input features, which are the best performing features known so far. This is mainly because signature-based features are very sensitive to the training data and cannot capture general behaviours of identified malware. To improve the robustness of classifiers, we study the problem of learning and verifying unwanted behaviours abstracted as automat… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
