Conformal Clustering and Its Application to Botnet Traffic

  • Conference paper
  • First Online:

Abstract

The paper describes an application of a novel clustering technique based on Conformal Predictors. Unlike traditional clustering methods, this technique allows to control the number of objects that are left outside of any cluster by setting up a required confidence level. This paper considers a multi-class unsupervised learning problem, and the developed technique is applied to bot-generated network traffic. An extended set of features describing the bot traffic is presented and the results are discussed.
