Artificial Immune System: Applications in Computer Security

This book deals with malware detection in terms of Artificial Immune System (AIS), and presents a number of AIS models and immune-based feature extraction approaches as well as their applications in computer security

• Covers all of the current achievements in computer security based on immune principles, which were obtained by the Computational Intelligence Laboratory of Peking University, China
• Includes state-of-the-art information on designing and developing artificial immune systems (AIS) and AIS-based solutions to computer security issues
• Presents new concepts such as immune danger theory, immune concentration, and class-wise information gain (CIG)

Keywords: AIS-based computer security; artificial immune system; malware detection; immune concentration; Danger Feature Based Negative Selection Algorithms; Immune Cooperation Mechanism; Class-Wise Information Gain
