Adverbs and Light Verbs

Chinese allows manner and degree adverbs to occur further to the left than is possible in English and other languages; compare Amanda will (*loudly) be (loudly) greeting her guests (loudly) with Lisi (qingqingde) ba zhuozi (qingqingde) qiao-le yixia “Lisi lightly knocked once on the table,” with the manner adverbial to the left of BA. It is proposed here that this results from the two languages...

Semantic Embeddings for Program Behavior Patterns

In this paper, we propose a new feature extraction technique for program execution logs. First, we automatically extract complex patterns from a program’s behavior graph. Then, we embed these patterns into a continuous space by training an autoencoder. We evaluate the proposed features on a real-world malicious software detection task. We also find that the embedding space captures interpretabl...
