Towards Building Generalizable Models for Malware Detection

Published:

Recorded presentation of our accepted paper at the BigCyber-2024 Workshop, part of the 2024 IEEE International Conference on Big Data.
The talk highlights our use of meta-learning (MAML) to develop models that generalize across unseen malware families using diverse datasets such as BODMAS, Avast-CTU, and MaleVis.

Towards Building Generalizable Models for Malware Detection

Published:

Presented a poster on using meta-learning techniques to improve malware detection across unseen malware families. The project integrates Model-Agnostic Meta-Learning (MAML) with datasets like BODMAS, MaleVis, and Avast-CTU to enhance model generalization in cybersecurity contexts.

Building Generalizable Learning Systems for Dynamic Cybersecurity Environments

Published:

Presented as a Master’s thesis defense for the M.S. in Computer Science. This presentation examined generalizable learning systems for dynamic cybersecurity environments using meta-learning and reinforcement learning, with applications to malware detection and network security simulation.
