The inevitable rise of machine learning in malware analysis puts forward the need for human-understandable explanations of the learned results. We point out how the ontological representation of malware data provides a suitable language for the construction of such explanations. We then focus on possible methods that enable producing such explanations and we reflect on our experience with them in the context of the EMBER dataset.

Abstract
The inevitable rise of machine learning in malware analysis puts forward the need for human-understandable explanations of the learned results. We point out how the ontological representation of malware data provides a suitable language for the construction of such explanations. We then focus on possible methods that enable producing such explanations and we reflect on our experience with them in the context of the EMBER dataset.File in questo prodotto:
