Android-manifest extraction and labeling method for malware compilation and dataset creation

Abstract

<div align="center"><span lang="EN-US">Malware is a nuisance for smartphone users. The impact is detrimental to smartphone users if the smartphone is infected by malware. Malware identification is not an easy process for ordinary users due to its deeply concealed dangers in application package kit (APK) files available in the Android Play Store. In this paper, the challenges of creating malware datasets are discussed. Long before a malware classification process and model can be built, the need for datasets with representative features for most types of <span>malwares has to be addressed systematically. Only after a quality data set is available can a quality classification model be obtained using machine learning (ML) or deep learning (DL) algorithms. The entire malware classification process is</span> a full pipeline process and sub processes. The authors purposefully focus on the process of building quality malware datasets, not on ML itself, because implementing ML requires another effort after the reliable dataset is fully built. The overall step in creating the malware dataset starts with the extraction of the Android Manifest from the APK file set and ends with the labeling method for all the extracted APK files. The key contribution of this paper is on how to generate datasets systematically from any APK file.</span></div>

Optimization of CNN + Mobilenetv3 for Insect Identification: Toward High Accuracy

“…Figure 2 Dataset Insect [11], [12] used in this research is taken from the Kaggle platform, where users of the platform have provided the dataset for the benefit of research and related application development. Compiled from various reliable sources, this dataset includes multiple types of insects that are commonly found in agricultural environments.…”

A Comparative Study of Sentiment Classification: Traditional NLP vs. Neural Network Approaches

“…In contrast, the Support Vector Machine (SVM) algorithm is known for its robustness as a margin-based approach. Lastly, the Multi-layer Perceptron (MLP) [15] algorithm is a type of deep neural network. The process depicted in figure 1 can be observed.…”

Natural Language Processing-based Summary Algorithm for Understanding Online News

“…The ready-made dataset is used to train the model. The Python programming environment also imports libraries, including Pandas, Numpy, Newspaper3k, NLTK, Sastrawi, and Matplotlib , (Hindarto & Djajadi, 2023). Newspaper3k is a web scraping tool and Python module that makes it easy for users to collect and analyze data from online news articles.…”
