SPRD:fast application repackaging detection approach in Android based on application’s UI and program dependency graph

A two stage detection approach which combine application’s UI and program code based on the observation that repackaging applications merely modify the structure of their user interface was proposed.Firstly,a fast hash similarity detection technique based on an abstracted representation of UI to ide...

Description
Summary:A two stage detection approach which combine application’s UI and program code based on the observation that repackaging applications merely modify the structure of their user interface was proposed.Firstly,a fast hash similarity detection technique based on an abstracted representation of UI to identify the potential visual-similar repackaging applications was designed.Secondly,program dependency graph is used to represent as the feature of app to achieve fine-grained and precise code clone detection.A prototype system,SPRD,was implemented based on the proposed approach.Experimental results show that the proposed approach achieves a good performance in both scalability and accuracy,and can be effectively applied in millions of applications and billions of code detection.
