Method of anti-confusion texture feature descriptor for malware images

It is a new method that uses image processing and machine learning algorithms to classify malware samples in malware visualization field.The texture feature description method has great influence on the result.To solve this problem,a new method was presented that joints global feature of GIST with l...

description It is a new method that uses image processing and machine learning algorithms to classify malware samples in malware visualization field.The texture feature description method has great influence on the result.To solve this problem,a new method was presented that joints global feature of GIST with local features of LBP or dense SIFT in order to construct combinative descriptors of malware gray-scale images.Using those descriptors,the malware classification performance was greatly improved in contrast to traditional method,especially for those samples have higher similarity in the different families,or those have lower similarity in the same family.A lot of experiments show that new method is much more effective and general than traditional method.On the confusing dataset,the accuracy rate of classification has been greatly improved.
