Abstract(in English) Recently, third-party IC vendors are very often used due toglobalization and cost-reduction in the IC market but malicious third-party vendors are very likely to insert hardware Trojans into their products. Several hardware Trojan detection techniques are proposed but it is much difficult to analyze huge and complex circuits and deal with evolving hardware Trojans. In this paper, we propose a static hardware Trojan verification method to identify hardware-Trojan infected nets (or Trojan nets) using Support Vector Machine. In the proposed method, we extract the five hardware-Trojan features in each net of a netlist and represent it to be a five-dimensional vector. We learn many five-dimensional vectors using a support vector machine (SVM) and classify a new netlist into Trojan nets and normal nets using learned SVM. Moreover, hardware Trojan nets are weighted in learning to effectively identify Trojan nets. The proposed method is a static verification method, and hence it runs very fast compared to dynamic verification methods where they have to run logic simulation and/or functional simulation. Experimental results demonstrate that our proposed method can efficiently reduce the false negative rate and successfully increase the true positive rate to up to 75%.
