Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) Existing research on application identification has problems from three points of view; credibility of training data, flexibility of learning, and violation of privacy. Therefore, we propose a system that classifies mobile traffic using modified smartphones that send packets with application tags. This system has solved the problems mentioned above. We evaluate this system using a trace of real traffic and show this system can classify the 80% of the mobile only using the statistics of packets (e.g., the length of packets). We focus on applications that can be classified accurately using only destination IPs because they connect limited server. We propose the method that distinguishes these applications using Gini index and cosine similarity and classify mobile traffic sent by them accurately. We evaluate this method in real mobile traffic and show that we can classify 92% of about 14 applications traffic when learning period is set to 1 day.
