A data mining approach for detection of self-propagating worms

In this paper we demonstrate our signature based detector for self-propagating worms. We use a set of worm and benign traffic traces of several endpoints to build benign and worm profiles. These profiles were arranged into separate n-ary trees. We also demonstrate our anomaly detector that was used to deal with tied matches between worm and benign trees. We analyzed the performance of each detector and also with their integration. Results show that our signature based detector can detect very high true positive. Meanwhile, the anomaly detector did not achieve high true positive. Both detectors, when used independently, suffer high false positive. However, when both detectors were integrated they maintained a high detection rate of true positive and minimized the false positive

Hypergraph Mining for Social Networks

Nowadays, more and more data is collected in large amounts, such that the need of studying it both efficiently and profitably is arising; we want to acheive new and significant informations that weren't known before the analysis. At this time many graph mining algorithms have been developed, but an algebra that could systematically define how to generalize such operations is missing. In order to propel the development of a such automatic analysis of an algebra, We propose for the first time (to the best of my knowledge) some primitive operators that may be the prelude to the systematical definition of a hypergraph algebra in this regard.

Una aproximación a la predicción del valor de acciones en la bolsa de valores aplicando técnicas de Data Mining

La predicción del valor de las acciones en la bolsa de valores ha sido un tema importante en el campo de inversiones, que por varios años ha atraído tanto a académicos como a inversionistas. Esto supone que la información disponible en el pasado de la compañía que cotiza en bolsa tiene alguna implicación en el futuro del valor de la misma. Este trabajo está enfocado en ayudar a un persona u organismo que decida invertir en la bolsa de valores a través de gestión de compra o venta de acciones de una compañía a tomar decisiones respecto al tiempo de comprar o vender basado en el conocimiento obtenido de los valores históricos de las acciones de una compañía en la bolsa de valores. Esta decisión será inferida a partir de un modelo de regresión múltiple que es una de las técnicas de datamining. Para llevar conseguir esto se emplea una metodología conocida como CRISP-DM aplicada a los datos históricos de la compañía con mayor valor actual del NASDAQ.---ABSTRACT---The prediction of the value of shares in the stock market has been a major issue in the field of investments, which for several years has attracted both academics and investors. This means that the information available in the company last traded have any involvement in the future of the value of it. This work is focused on helping an investor decides to invest in the stock market through management buy or sell shares of a company to make decisions with respect to time to buy or sell based on the knowledge gained from the historic values of the shares of a company in the stock market. This decision will be inferred from a multiple regression model which is one of the techniques of data mining. To get this out a methodology known as CRISP-DM applied to historical data of the company with the highest current value of NASDAQ is used.

Organic Surveillance: Security and Myth in the Rural

This project looks at the ways Northeastern Ontario citizens in rural communities regulate their private property through traditional and contemporary surveillance means. Through art and objects, this project allows viewers the opportunity to experience surveillance in rural areas through visual and creative ways that encourage interaction and critique. This project defines organic surveillance by looking at the ways ruralists in Markstay Ontario practice surveillance and deterrence which is influenced by characteristics of land, risks and other determining factors such as psychology, resourcefulness, sustainability, technology and private property. Organic surveillance argues that surveillance and deterrence is prevalent far beyond datamining, GPS tracking and social media. Surveillance and deterrence as methods of survival are found everywhere, even in the farthest, most “wild” and forested areas.
