Malware has seriously threatened the safety of computer systems for a long time. Due to the rapid development of anti-detection technology, traditional detection methods based on static analysis and dynamic analysis have limited effects. With its better predictive performance, AI-based malware detection has been increasingly used to deal with malware in recent years. However, due to the diversity of malware, it is difficult to extract feature from malware, which make malware detection not conductive to the application of AI technology. To solve the problem, a malware classifier based on graph convolutional network is designed to adapt to the difference of malware characteristics. The specific method is to firstly extract the API call sequence from the malware code and generate a directed cycle graph, then use the Markov chain and principal component analysis method to extract the feature map of the graph, and design a classifier based on graph convolutional network, and finally analyze and compare the performance of the method. The results show that the method has better performance in most detection, and the highest accuracy is $98.32\%$ , compared with existing methods, our model is superior to other methods in terms of FPR and accuracy. It is also stable to deal with the development and growth of malware.

The behaviour of individual users in an online social network is a major contributing factor in determining the outcome of multiple network phenomenon. Group formation, growth of the network, information propagation, and rumour blocking are some of the many network behavioural traits that are influenced by the interaction patterns of the users in the network. Network motifs capture one such interaction pattern between users in online social networks (OSNs). For this work, four second-order (two-edged) network motifs have been considered, namely, message receiving pattern, message broadcasting pattern, message passing pattern, and reciprocal message pattern, to analyse user behaviour in online social networks. This work provides and utilizes a node interaction pattern-finding algorithm to identify the frequency of aforementioned second-order network motifs in six real-life online social networks (Facebook, GPlus, GNU, Twitter, Enron Email, and Wiki-vote). The frequency of network motifs participated in by a node is considered for the relative ranking of all nodes in the online social networks. The highest-rated nodes are considered seeds for information propagation. The performance of using network motifs for ranking nodes as seeds for information propagation is validated using statistical metrics Z-score, concentration, and significance profile and compared with baseline ranking methods in-degree centrality, out-degree centrality, closeness centrality, and PageRank. The comparative study shows the performance of centrality measures to be similar or better than second-order network motifs as seed nodes in information diffusion. The experimental results on finding frequencies and importance of different interaction patterns provide insights on the significance and representation of each such interaction pattern and how it varies from network to network.

The study of innate immune-based algorithms is an important research domain in Artificial Immune System (AIS), such as Dendritic Cell Algorithm (DCA), Toll-Like Receptor algorithm (TLRA). The parameters in these algorithms usually require either manually pre-defined usually provided by the immunologists, or empirically derived from the training dataset, and result in poor self-adaptation and self-learning. The fundamental reason is that the original innate immune mechanisms lack adaptive biological theory. To solve this problem, a theory called ‘Trained Immunity™ or Innate Immune Memory (IIM)™ that thinks innate immunity can also build immunological memory to enhance the immune system™s learning and adaptive reactions to the second stimulus is introduced into AIS to improve the innate immune algorithms™ adaptability. In this study, we present an overview of IIM with particular emphasis on analogies in the AIS world, and a modified DCA with an effective automated tuning mechanism based on IIM (IIM-DCA) to optimize migration threshold of DCA. The migration threshold of Dendritic Cells (DCs) determines the lifespan of the antigen collected by DCs, and directly affect the detection speed and accuracy of DCA. Experiments on real datasets show that our proposed IIM-DCA which integrates Innate Immune Memory mechanism delivers more accurate results.

Online social network is one of the most prominent media that holds information about society's epidemic problem. Due to privacy reasons, most of the users will not disclose their location. Detecting the location of the tweet users is required to track the geographic location of the spreading diseases. This work aims to detect the spreading location of the COVID-19 disease from the Twitter users and content discussed in the tweet. COVID-19 is a disease caused by the "novel coronavirus." About 80% of confirmed cases recover from the disease. However, one out of every six people who get COVID-19 can become seriously ill, stated by the World health organization. Inferring the user location for identifying the spreading location for the disease is a very challenging task. This paper proposes a new technique based on a hypergraph model to detect the Twitter user's locations based on the spreading disease. This model uses hypergraph with weighting factor technique to infer the spreading disease's spatial location. The accuracy of prediction can be improved when a massive volume of streaming data is analyzed. The Helly property of the hypergraph was applied to discard less potential words from the text analysis, which claims this work of unique nature. A weighting factor was introduced to calculate the score of each location for a particular user. The location of each user is predicted based on the one that possesses the highest weighting factor. The proposed framework has been evaluated and tested for various measures like precision, recall and F-measure. The promising results obtained have substantiated the claim for this work compared to the state-of-the-art methodologies.
