Android platform security is an active area of research where malware detection techniques continuously evolve to identify novel malware and improve the timely and accurate detection of existing malware. Adversaries are constantly in charge of employing innovative techniques to avoid or prolong malware detection effectively. Past studies have shown that malware detection systems are susceptible to evasion attacks where adversaries can successfully bypass the existing security defenses and deliver the malware to the target system without being detected. The evolution of escape-resistant systems is an open research problem. This paper presents a detailed taxonomy and evaluation of Android-based malware evasion …

We investigated the impact of sleep and training load of Division - 1 women’s basketball players on their game performance and injury prediction using machine learning algorithms. The data was collected during a pandemic-condensed season with unpredictable interruptions to the games and athletic training schedules. We collected data from sleep monitoring devices, training data from coaches, injury reports from medical staff, and weekly survey data from athletes for 22 weeks.With proper data imputation, interpretable feature set, data balancing, and classifiers, we showed that we could predict game performance and injuries with more than 90% accuracy. More importantly, our F1 and …


Mind Change Speed-Up For Learning Languages From Positive Data, Sanjay Jain, Efim Kinber Jun 2013

Mind Change Speed-Up For Learning Languages From Positive Data, Sanjay Jain, Efim Kinber

School of Computer Science & Engineering Faculty Publications

Within the frameworks of learning in the limit of indexed classes of recursive languages from positive data and automatic learning in the limit of indexed classes of regular languages (with automatically computable sets of indices), we study the problem of minimizing the maximum number of mind changes by a learner on all languages with indices not exceeding . For inductive inference of recursive languages, we establish two conditions under which can be made smaller than any recursive unbounded non-decreasing function. We also establish how is affected if at least one of these two conditions does not hold. In the case …


Learning Multiple Languages In Groups, Sanjay Jain, Efim Kinber Nov 2007

Learning Multiple Languages In Groups, Sanjay Jain, Efim Kinber

We consider a variant of Gold’s learning paradigm where a learner receives as input different languages (in the form of one text where all input languages are interleaved). Our goal is to explore the situation when a more “coarse” classification of input languages is possible, whereas more refined classification is not. More specifically, we answer the following question: under which conditions, a learner, being fed different languages, can produce grammars covering all input languages, but cannot produce grammars covering input languages for any . We also consider a variant of this task, where each of the output grammars may not …

People tend not to have perfect memories when it comes to learning, or to anything else for that matter. Most formal studies of learning, however, assume a perfect memory. Some approaches have restricted the number of items that could be retained. We introduce a complexity theoretic accounting of memory utilization by learning machines. In our new model, memory is measured in bits as a function of the size of the input. There is a hierarchy of learnability based on increasing memory allotment. The lower bound results are proved using an unusual combination of pumping and mutual recursion theorem arguments. For …
