VConv-DAE: Deep Volumetric Shape Learning Without Object Labels
With the advent of affordable depth sensors, 3D capture becomes more and more
ubiquitous and already has made its way into commercial products. Yet,
capturing the geometry or complete shapes of everyday objects using scanning
devices (e.g. Kinect) still comes with several challenges that result in noise
or even incomplete shapes. Recent success in deep learning has shown how to
learn complex shape distributions in a data-driven way from large scale 3D CAD
Model collections and to utilize them for 3D processing on volumetric
representations and thereby circumventing problems of topology and
tessellation. Prior work has shown encouraging results on problems ranging from
shape completion to recognition. We provide an analysis of such approaches and
discover that training as well as the resulting representation are strongly and
unnecessarily tied to the notion of object labels. Thus, we propose a full
convolutional volumetric auto encoder that learns volumetric representation
from noisy data by estimating the voxel occupancy grids. The proposed method
outperforms prior work on challenging tasks like denoising and shape
completion. We also show that the obtained deep embedding gives competitive
performance when used for classification and promising results for shape
interpolation
An investigation of a deep learning based malware detection system
We investigate a Deep Learning based system for malware detection. In the
investigation, we experiment with different combination of Deep Learning
architectures including Auto-Encoders, and Deep Neural Networks with varying
layers over Malicia malware dataset on which earlier studies have obtained an
accuracy of (98%) with an acceptable False Positive Rates (1.07%). But these
results were done using extensive man-made custom domain features and investing
corresponding feature engineering and design efforts. In our proposed approach,
besides improving the previous best results (99.21% accuracy and a False
Positive Rate of 0.19%) indicates that Deep Learning based systems could
deliver an effective defense against malware. Since it is good in automatically
extracting higher conceptual features from the data, Deep Learning based
systems could provide an effective, general and scalable mechanism for
detection of existing and unknown malware.Comment: 13 Pages, 4 figure
Malware Detection using Machine Learning and Deep Learning
Research shows that over the last decade, malware has been growing
exponentially, causing substantial financial losses to various organizations.
Different anti-malware companies have been proposing solutions to defend
attacks from these malware. The velocity, volume, and the complexity of malware
are posing new challenges to the anti-malware community. Current
state-of-the-art research shows that recently, researchers and anti-virus
organizations started applying machine learning and deep learning methods for
malware analysis and detection. We have used opcode frequency as a feature
vector and applied unsupervised learning in addition to supervised learning for
malware classification. The focus of this tutorial is to present our work on
detecting malware with 1) various machine learning algorithms and 2) deep
learning models. Our results show that the Random Forest outperforms Deep
Neural Network with opcode frequency as a feature. Also in feature reduction,
Deep Auto-Encoders are overkill for the dataset, and elementary function like
Variance Threshold perform better than others. In addition to the proposed
methodologies, we will also discuss the additional issues and the unique
challenges in the domain, open research problems, limitations, and future
directions.Comment: 11 Pages and 3 Figure
