Malware detection using genetic programming

Abstract: Malware is any software aiming to disrupt computer operation. Malware is also used to gather sensitive information or gain access to private computer systems. This is widely seen as one of the major threats to computer systems nowadays. Traditionally, anti-malware software is based on a signature detection system which keeps updating from the Internet malware database and thus keeping track of known malwares. While this method may be very accurate to detect previously known malwares, it is unable to detect unk… Show more

“…Among them, GP is a well-known machine learning algorithm that is first proposed by Cramer [10] and later developed by Koza [11]. The very simple yet effective search framework of GP has made it so popular in the literature that it has been applied to solve a wide range of machine learning problems including malware detection [13], voice detection [14], software testing [15], and the like. However, in spite of a great adoption of evolutionary-based methods on different areas, the application of such methods on the domain of image classification area is still immature and hence needs to have further efforts.…”
