Robust and Energy Efficient Malware Security for Robot Cyber-Physical Systems
Building scaled-down, distributed machine learning models for static malware detection on robots
Enabling each robot to secure itself against malicious software.The unique framework allows edge-level intelligence using scaled machine-learning models to ensure security. The first step in this endeavour was to create the first-of-its-kind dataset for malware and good software for robots, The RoboMal Dataset.
Adversarial defense builds robustness into these models, while zero-shot learning allows such models to mature with time to learn previously unseen classes of malware. The overview of this thrust is available at ICCPS2022.
