Challenges in developing Capture-HPC exclusion lists
(ACM Press, 2014-09-09)In this paper we discuss the challenges faced whilst developing exclusion lists for the high-interaction client honeypot, Capture-HPC. Exclusion lists are Capture client system behaviours which are used in the decision ... -
Between Sound and Spelling : Combining Phonetics and Clustering Algorithms to Improve Target Word Recovery
(Springer Nature, 2014)In this paper we revisit the task of spell checking focusing on target word recovery. We propose a new approach that relies on phonetic information to improve the accuracy of clustering algorithms in identifying misspellings ... -
Towards effective malware clustering : reducing false negatives through feature weighting and the Lp metric
(CRC Press, 2014-09)In this paper we present a novel method to reduce the incidence of false negatives in the clustering of malware detected during drive-by-download attacks. Our method comprises the use of a high-interaction client honey-pot ... -
Partitional Clustering of Malware Using K-Means
(Springer Nature, 2014-05)This paper describes a novel method aiming to cluster datasets containing malware behavioural data. Our method transform the data into an standardised data matrix that can be used in any clustering algorithm, finds the ... -
Identification of a new gene product encoded by mRNA D of Infectious Bronchitis Virus.
(Springer Nature, 1987)The coronavirus Infectious Bronchitis Virus (IBV), a pathogen of chickens, has a genome structure typical of a coronavirus. The virus particle contains a single-stranded RNA molecule of approximately 27kb with positive ... -
'Nigel Kneale (1922-2006)'

Minkowski Metric, Feature Weighting and Anomalous Cluster Initialisation in K-Means Clustering
(2012-03)This paper represents another step in overcoming a drawback of K-Means, its lack of defense against noisy features, using feature weights in the criterion. The Weighted K-Means method by Huang et al. (2008, 2004, 2005) ... -
