arXiv:2608. 15504v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Encrypted traffic classification is vital for network security, yet real-world deployments are inherently sensitive to rare but high-loss errors such as misclassification of malicious traffic.
arXiv:2603.25507v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Network Traffic Classification (NTC) increasingly relies on data-driven models, yet its practical deployment is often constrained by limited...
The paper proposes a human-centered framework for validating the semantic soundness of machine learning models used in network traffic classification. It extends existing knowledge-generation methods by integrating data, models, explainability tools, visualizations, and expert reasoning to iteratively explore, verify, and refine model behavior and preprocessing steps. The framework is built on literature findings, benchmark analyses, XAI experience, and expert feedback, offering practical guidance for ensuring models learn trustworthy, semantically meaningful patterns rather than spurious correlations.
