Abstract(in English) Recently, the damage of Ransomware has spread around the world.Ransomware is malware that requires users to pay money as a hostage by the decryption key after encrypting user files or locking computer system.Machine learnig that uses API calls as a feature is used for a detection method of ransomware.In the previous research, the log is represented by vectors focusing on whether the API call is in the log for all API calls, or not.In this paper, however, logs are represented by vectors with how many times the API call in the log for all API calls.Then, we show that this method improving detection ability.
