Effective malware detection is critical to safeguarding digital ecosystems from evolving cyber threats. However, the scarcity of labeled training data, particularly for cross-family malware detection, poses a significant challenge. This research proposes a novel architecture ConvNet-6 to be used in Siamese Neural Networks for applying Zero-shot learning to address the issue of data scarcity. The proposed model for malware detection uses the ConvNet-6 architecture even with limited training samples. The proposed model is trained with just one labeled sample per sub-family. We conduct extensive experiments on a diverse dataset featuring Android and Portable Executables' malware families. The model achieves high performance in terms of 82% accuracy on the test dataset, demonstrating its ability to generalize and effectively detect previously unseen malware variants. Furthermore, we examine the model's transferability by testing it on a portable executable malware dataset, despite being trained solely on the Android dataset. Encouragingly, the performance remains consistent. The results of our research showcase the potential of deep convolutional neural network (CNN) in Siamese neural networks for the application of zero-shot learning to detect cross-family malware, even when dealing with minimal labeled training data.

Facial images are used for kinship verification. Traditional convolutional neural networks and transfer learning-based approaches are presently used for kinship identification. The transfer-learning approach is useful in many fields. However, it does not perform well in the identification of humans' kinship because transfer-learning models are trained on a different type of data that is significantly different as compared to human face image data, a technique which may be able for kinship identification by comparing images of parents and their children with transformed age instead of comparing their actual images is required. In this article, a technique for kinship identification using a Siamese neural network and age transformation algorithm is proposed. The results are satisfactory as an overall accuracy of 76.38% has been achieved. Further work can be carried out to improve the accuracy by improving the Life Span Age Transformation (LAT) algorithm for kinship identification using facial images.
