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 %.

The study evaluates pseudo‑labeling for semi‑supervised learning on Android malware attribution using six classifiers. Results show that the benefit of SSL varies strongly by classifier: SVM gains the most, LightGBM improves modestly, and Random Forest can be harmed at low label ratios. The approach particularly helps hard‑to‑classify families and achieves near‑optimal performance with about 800 labeled samples.
