The paper introduces a new benchmark for assessing out-of-distribution robustness in graph-based Android malware classifiers, highlighting that current models drop up to 45% accuracy on unseen malware variants. It presents two scenarios—MalNet-Tiny-Common for covariate shift and MalNet-Tiny-Distinct for domain shift—and identifies a limitation in existing benchmarks that rely solely on structure-only function call graphs. To address this, the authors propose a semantic enrichment framework that augments graph topology with function-level attributes and LLM-based code embeddings, demonstrating that this data-centric approach improves robustness under distribution shift and complements model-based methods.

arXiv:2604. 17376v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: In today's day and age, we face a challenge in detecting deepfake images because of the fast evolution of modern generative models and the poor generalization capability of existing methods.
The paper presents a lightweight machine‑learning approach for multi‑class malware detection on resource‑constrained devices. Using a LightGBM classifier with SMOTE oversampling, SOM‑US undersampling, and Genetic‑Algorithm feature selection, the authors achieve 89.1 % accuracy on four malware families and 76 % on 16 individual malware types. A second Random‑Forest model further improves family classification to 91.2 % and individual classification to 78.7 %.
