As mobile and smart connectivity continue to grow, malware presents a permanently evolving threat to different types of critical domains such as health, logistics, banking, and community segments. Different types of malware have dynamic behaviors and complicated characteristics that are shared among members of the same malware family. Malware threat intelligence reports play a crucial role in describing and documenting the detected malware, providing a wealth of information regarding its attributes, patterns, and behaviors. There is a large amount of intelligent threat information regarding malware. The ontology allows the systematic organization and categorization of this information to ensure consistency in representing concepts and entities across various sources. In this study, we reviewed and extended an existing malware ontology to cover Android malware. Our extended ontology is called AndMalOnt. It consisted of 13 new classes, 16 object properties, and 31 data properties. Second, we created an Android malware knowledge graph by extracting reports from the MalwareBazaar repository and representing them in AndMalOnt. This involved generating a knowledge graph that encompasses over 2600 malware samples. Our ontology, knowledge graph, and source code are all open-source and accessible via GitHub

Micro-videos have recently gained immense popularity, sparking critical research in micro-video recommendation with significant implications for the entertainment, advertising, and e-commerce industries. However, the lack of large-scale public micro-video datasets poses a major challenge for developing effective recommender systems. To address this challenge, we introduce a very large micro-video recommendation dataset, named "MicroLens", consisting of one billion user-item interaction behaviors, 34 million users, and one million micro-videos. This dataset also contains various raw modality information about videos, including titles, cover images, audio, and full-length videos. MicroLens serves as a benchmark for content-driven micro-video recommendation, enabling researchers to utilize various modalities of video information for recommendation, rather than relying solely on item IDs or off-the-shelf video features extracted from a pre-trained network. Our benchmarking of multiple recommender models and video encoders on MicroLens has yielded valuable insights into the performance of micro-video recommendation. We believe that this dataset will not only benefit the recommender system community but also promote the development of the video understanding field. Our datasets and code are available at //github.com/westlake-repl/MicroLens.
In real-world applications, speaker recognition models often face various domain-mismatch challenges, leading to a significant drop in performance. Although numerous domain adaptation techniques have been developed to address this issue, almost all present methods focus on a simple configuration where the model is trained in one domain and deployed in another. However, real-world environments are often complex and may contain multiple domains, making the methods designed for one-to-one adaptation suboptimal. In our paper, we propose a self-supervised learning method to tackle this multi-domain adaptation problem. Building upon the basic self-supervised adaptation algorithm, we designed three strategies to make it suitable for multi-domain adaptation: an in-domain negative sampling strategy, a MoCo-like memory bank scheme, and a CORAL-like distribution alignment. We conducted experiments using VoxCeleb2 as the source domain dataset and CN-Celeb1 as the target multi-domain dataset. Our results demonstrate that our method clearly outperforms the basic self-supervised adaptation method, which simply treats the data of CN-Celeb1 as a single domain. Importantly, the improvement is consistent in nearly all in-domain tests and cross-domain tests, demonstrating the effectiveness of our proposed method.
In recent years, wireless networks are evolving complex, which upsurges the use of zero-touch artificial intelligence (AI)-driven network automation within the telecommunication industry. In particular, network slicing, the most promising technology beyond 5G, would embrace AI models to manage the complex communication network. Besides, it is also essential to build the trustworthiness of the AI black boxes in actual deployment when AI makes complex resource management and anomaly detection. Inspired by closed-loop automation and Explainable Artificial intelligence (XAI), we design an Explainable Federated deep learning (FDL) model to predict per-slice RAN dropped traffic probability while jointly considering the sensitivity and explainability-aware metrics as constraints in such non-IID setup. In precise, we quantitatively validate the faithfulness of the explanations via the so-called attribution-based \emph{log-odds metric} that is included as a constraint in the run-time FL optimization task. Simulation results confirm its superiority over an unconstrained integrated-gradient (IG) \emph{post-hoc} FDL baseline.
With the advancing technology, the hardware gain of computers and the increase in the processing capacity of processors have facilitated the processing of instantaneous and real-time images. Face recognition processes are also studies in the field of image processing. Facial recognition processes are frequently used in security applications and commercial applications. Especially in the last 20 years, the high performances of artificial intelligence (AI) studies have contributed to the spread of these studies in many different fields. Education is one of them. The potential and advantages of using AI in education; can be grouped under three headings: student, teacher, and institution. One of the institutional studies may be the security of educational environments and the contribution of automation to education and training processes. From this point of view, deep learning methods, one of the sub-branches of AI, were used in this study. For object detection from images, a pioneering study has been designed and successfully implemented to keep records of students' entrance to the educational institution and to perform class attendance with images taken from the camera using image processing algorithms. The application of the study to real-life problems will be carried out in a school determined in the 2022-2023 academic year.
Despite the recent success in data-driven fault diagnosis of rotating machines, there are still remaining challenges in this field. Among the issues to be addressed, is the lack of information about variety of faults the system may encounter in the field. In this paper, we assume a partial knowledge of the system faults and use the corresponding data to train a convolutional neural network. A combination of t-SNE method and clustering techniques is then employed to detect novel faults. Upon detection, the network is augmented using the new data. Finally, a test setup is used to validate this two-stage methodology on a centrifugal pump and experimental results show high accuracy in detecting novel faults.
Energy consumption is a fundamental concern in mobile application development, bearing substantial significance for both developers and end-users. Moreover, it is a critical determinant in the consumer's decision-making process when considering a smartphone purchase. From the sustainability perspective, it becomes imperative to explore approaches aimed at mitigating the energy consumption of mobile devices, given the significant global consequences arising from the extensive utilisation of billions of smartphones, which imparts a profound environmental impact. Despite the existence of various energy-efficient programming practices within the Android platform, the dominant mobile ecosystem, there remains a need for documented machine learning-based energy prediction algorithms tailored explicitly for mobile app development. Hence, the main objective of this research is to propose a novel neural network-based framework, enhanced by a metaheuristic approach, to achieve robust energy prediction in the context of mobile app development. The metaheuristic approach here plays a crucial role in not only identifying suitable learning algorithms and their corresponding parameters but also determining the optimal number of layers and neurons within each layer. To the best of our knowledge, prior studies have yet to employ any metaheuristic algorithm to address all these hyperparameters simultaneously. Moreover, due to limitations in accessing certain aspects of a mobile phone, there might be missing data in the data set, and the proposed framework can handle this. In addition, we conducted an optimal algorithm selection strategy, employing 13 metaheuristic algorithms, to identify the best algorithm based on accuracy and resistance to missing values. The comprehensive experiments demonstrate that our proposed approach yields significant outcomes for energy consumption prediction.
Modern agile software projects are subject to constant change, making it essential to re-asses overall delay risk throughout the project life cycle. Existing effort estimation models are static and not able to incorporate changes occurring during project execution. In this paper, we propose a dynamic model for continuously predicting overall delay using delay patterns and Bayesian modeling. The model incorporates the context of the project phase and learns from changes in team performance over time. We apply the approach to real-world data from 4,040 epics and 270 teams at ING. An empirical evaluation of our approach and comparison to the state-of-the-art demonstrate significant improvements in predictive accuracy. The dynamic model consistently outperforms static approaches and the state-of-the-art, even during early project phases.
Face recognition technology has advanced significantly in recent years due largely to the availability of large and increasingly complex training datasets for use in deep learning models. These datasets, however, typically comprise images scraped from news sites or social media platforms and, therefore, have limited utility in more advanced security, forensics, and military applications. These applications require lower resolution, longer ranges, and elevated viewpoints. To meet these critical needs, we collected and curated the first and second subsets of a large multi-modal biometric dataset designed for use in the research and development (R&D) of biometric recognition technologies under extremely challenging conditions. Thus far, the dataset includes more than 350,000 still images and over 1,300 hours of video footage of approximately 1,000 subjects. To collect this data, we used Nikon DSLR cameras, a variety of commercial surveillance cameras, specialized long-rage R&D cameras, and Group 1 and Group 2 UAV platforms. The goal is to support the development of algorithms capable of accurately recognizing people at ranges up to 1,000 m and from high angles of elevation. These advances will include improvements to the state of the art in face recognition and will support new research in the area of whole-body recognition using methods based on gait and anthropometry. This paper describes methods used to collect and curate the dataset, and the dataset's characteristics at the current stage.
Deep learning has revolutionized many machine learning tasks in recent years, ranging from image classification and video processing to speech recognition and natural language understanding. The data in these tasks are typically represented in the Euclidean space. However, there is an increasing number of applications where data are generated from non-Euclidean domains and are represented as graphs with complex relationships and interdependency between objects. The complexity of graph data has imposed significant challenges on existing machine learning algorithms. Recently, many studies on extending deep learning approaches for graph data have emerged. In this survey, we provide a comprehensive overview of graph neural networks (GNNs) in data mining and machine learning fields. We propose a new taxonomy to divide the state-of-the-art graph neural networks into different categories. With a focus on graph convolutional networks, we review alternative architectures that have recently been developed; these learning paradigms include graph attention networks, graph autoencoders, graph generative networks, and graph spatial-temporal networks. We further discuss the applications of graph neural networks across various domains and summarize the open source codes and benchmarks of the existing algorithms on different learning tasks. Finally, we propose potential research directions in this fast-growing field.
Adversarial attacks to image classification systems present challenges to convolutional networks and opportunities for understanding them. This study suggests that adversarial perturbations on images lead to noise in the features constructed by these networks. Motivated by this observation, we develop new network architectures that increase adversarial robustness by performing feature denoising. Specifically, our networks contain blocks that denoise the features using non-local means or other filters; the entire networks are trained end-to-end. When combined with adversarial training, our feature denoising networks substantially improve the state-of-the-art in adversarial robustness in both white-box and black-box attack settings. On ImageNet, under 10-iteration PGD white-box attacks where prior art has 27.9% accuracy, our method achieves 55.7%; even under extreme 2000-iteration PGD white-box attacks, our method secures 42.6% accuracy. A network based on our method was ranked first in Competition on Adversarial Attacks and Defenses (CAAD) 2018 --- it achieved 50.6% classification accuracy on a secret, ImageNet-like test dataset against 48 unknown attackers, surpassing the runner-up approach by ~10%. Code and models will be made publicly available.
