Applications of Machine Learning to Threat Intelligence, Intrusion Detection and Malware
Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) are emerging technologies with applications to many fields. This paper is a survey of use cases of ML for threat intelligence, intrusion detection, and malware analysis and detection. Threat intelligence, especially attack attribution, can benefit from the use of ML classification. False positives from rule-based intrusion detection systems can be reduced with the use of ML models. Malware analysis and classification can be made easier by developing ML frameworks to distill similarities between the malicious programs. Adversarial machine learning will also be discussed, because while ML can be used to solve problems or reduce analyst workload, it also introduces new attack surfaces

Interpreting Embedding Models of Knowledge Bases: A Pedagogical Approach
Knowledge bases are employed in a variety of applications from natural
language processing to semantic web search; alas, in practice their usefulness
is hurt by their incompleteness. Embedding models attain state-of-the-art
accuracy in knowledge base completion, but their predictions are notoriously
hard to interpret. In this paper, we adapt "pedagogical approaches" (from the
literature on neural networks) so as to interpret embedding models by
extracting weighted Horn rules from them. We show how pedagogical approaches
have to be adapted to take upon the large-scale relational aspects of knowledge
bases and show experimentally their strengths and weaknesses.Comment: presented at 2018 ICML Workshop on Human Interpretability in Machine
