DESCRIPTION:The seminar will start with an introduction to general concepts
of machine learning followed by two research directions. The first resear
ch direction is to illustrate how to use AI for malware analysis. Assembly
code analysis is one of the critical processes for mitigating the exponen
tially increasing threats from malicious software. However\, it is a manua
lly intensive and time-consuming process even for experienced reverse engi
neers. An effective and efficient assembly code clone search engine can gr
eatly reduce the effort of this process. The second research direction is
on authorship analysis for crime investigation. The objective is to identi
fy the author or infer the author's characteristics based on their writing
style.\n\nRegister\n\nSpeaker\n\nProf. Benjamin Fung is a Canada Research
Chair in Data Mining for Cybersecurity\, a Full Professor of the School o
f Information Studies (SIS) at 91µ¼º½ÊÓÆµ\, and an Associate Editor
of Elsevier Sustainable Cities and Society (SCS). He received a Ph.D. deg
ree in computing science from Simon Fraser University in 2007. Collaborati
ng closely with the national defense\, transportation\, and healthcare sec
tors\, he has published over 180 refereed articles that span across the re
search forums of data mining\, machine learning\, privacy protection\, and
cybersecurity with over 17\,000 citations and h-index 60. His data mining
works in crime investigation and authorship analysis have been reported b
y media\, including the New York Times\, BBC\, CBC\, etc. Prof. Fung is a
licensed professional engineer in software engineering. See his research w
