Challenges in Bridging Social Semantics and Formal Semantics on the Web
This paper describes several results of Wimmics, a research lab which names
stands for: web-instrumented man-machine interactions, communities, and
semantics. The approaches introduced here rely on graph-oriented knowledge
representation, reasoning and operationalization to model and support actors,
actions and interactions in web-based epistemic communities. The re-search
results are applied to support and foster interactions in online communities
and manage their resources
apk2vec: Semi-supervised multi-view representation learning for profiling Android applications
Building behavior profiles of Android applications (apps) with holistic, rich
and multi-view information (e.g., incorporating several semantic views of an
app such as API sequences, system calls, etc.) would help catering downstream
analytics tasks such as app categorization, recommendation and malware analysis
significantly better. Towards this goal, we design a semi-supervised
Representation Learning (RL) framework named apk2vec to automatically generate
a compact representation (aka profile/embedding) for a given app. More
specifically, apk2vec has the three following unique characteristics which make
it an excellent choice for largescale app profiling: (1) it encompasses
information from multiple semantic views such as API sequences, permissions,
etc., (2) being a semi-supervised embedding technique, it can make use of
labels associated with apps (e.g., malware family or app category labels) to
build high quality app profiles, and (3) it combines RL and feature hashing
which allows it to efficiently build profiles of apps that stream over time
(i.e., online learning). The resulting semi-supervised multi-view hash
embeddings of apps could then be used for a wide variety of downstream tasks
such as the ones mentioned above. Our extensive evaluations with more than
42,000 apps demonstrate that apk2vec's app profiles could significantly
outperform state-of-the-art techniques in four app analytics tasks namely,
malware detection, familial clustering, app clone detection and app
recommendation.Comment: International Conference on Data Mining, 201
A Multi-view Context-aware Approach to Android Malware Detection and Malicious Code Localization
Existing Android malware detection approaches use a variety of features such
as security sensitive APIs, system calls, control-flow structures and
information flows in conjunction with Machine Learning classifiers to achieve
accurate detection. Each of these feature sets provides a unique semantic
perspective (or view) of apps' behaviours with inherent strengths and
limitations. Meaning, some views are more amenable to detect certain attacks
but may not be suitable to characterise several other attacks. Most of the
existing malware detection approaches use only one (or a selected few) of the
aforementioned feature sets which prevent them from detecting a vast majority
of attacks. Addressing this limitation, we propose MKLDroid, a unified
framework that systematically integrates multiple views of apps for performing
comprehensive malware detection and malicious code localisation. The rationale
is that, while a malware app can disguise itself in some views, disguising in
every view while maintaining malicious intent will be much harder.
MKLDroid uses a graph kernel to capture structural and contextual information
from apps' dependency graphs and identify malice code patterns in each view.
Subsequently, it employs Multiple Kernel Learning (MKL) to find a weighted
combination of the views which yields the best detection accuracy. Besides
multi-view learning, MKLDroid's unique and salient trait is its ability to
locate fine-grained malice code portions in dependency graphs (e.g.,
methods/classes). Through our large-scale experiments on several datasets
(incl. wild apps), we demonstrate that MKLDroid outperforms three
state-of-the-art techniques consistently, in terms of accuracy while
maintaining comparable efficiency. In our malicious code localisation
experiments on a dataset of repackaged malware, MKLDroid was able to identify
all the malice classes with 94% average recall
Expert System for Crop Disease based on Graph Pattern Matching: A proposal
Para la agroindustria, las enfermedades en cultivos constituyen uno de los problemas más frecuentes que generan grandes pérdidas económicas y baja calidad en la producción. Por otro lado, desde las ciencias de la computación, han surgido diferentes herramientas cuya finalidad es mejorar la prevención y el tratamiento de estas enfermedades. En este sentido, investigaciones recientes proponen el desarrollo de sistemas expertos para resolver este problema haciendo uso de técnicas de minería de datos e inteligencia artificial, como inferencia basada en reglas, árboles de decisión, redes bayesianas, entre otras. Además, los grafos pueden ser usados para el almacenamiento de los diferentes tipos de variables que se encuentran presentes en un ambiente de cultivos, permitiendo la aplicación de técnicas de minería de datos en grafos, como el emparejamiento de patrones en los mismos. En este artículo presentamos una visión general de las temáticas mencionadas y una propuesta de un sistema experto para enfermedades en cultivos, basado en emparejamiento de patrones en grafos.For agroindustry, crop diseases constitute one of the most common problems that generate large economic losses and low production quality. On the other hand, from computer science, several tools have emerged in order to improve the prevention and treatment of these diseases. In this sense, recent research proposes the development of expert systems to solve this problem, making use of data mining and artificial intelligence techniques like rule-based inference, decision trees, Bayesian network, among others. Furthermore, graphs can be used for storage of different types of variables that are present in an environment of crops, allowing the application of graph data mining techniques like graph pattern matching. Therefore, in this paper we present an overview of the above issues and a proposal of an expert system for crop disease based on graph pattern matching
Learning-assisted Theorem Proving with Millions of Lemmas
Large formal mathematical libraries consist of millions of atomic inference
steps that give rise to a corresponding number of proved statements (lemmas).
Analogously to the informal mathematical practice, only a tiny fraction of such
statements is named and re-used in later proofs by formal mathematicians. In
this work, we suggest and implement criteria defining the estimated usefulness
of the HOL Light lemmas for proving further theorems. We use these criteria to
mine the large inference graph of the lemmas in the HOL Light and Flyspeck
libraries, adding up to millions of the best lemmas to the pool of statements
that can be re-used in later proofs. We show that in combination with
learning-based relevance filtering, such methods significantly strengthen
automated theorem proving of new conjectures over large formal mathematical
libraries such as Flyspeck.Comment: journal version of arXiv:1310.2797 (which was submitted to LPAR
