Using text mining to infer the purpose of permission use in mobile apps
Proceedings of the 2015 ACM international joint conference on pervasive and …, 2015•dl.acm.org
Understanding the purpose of why sensitive data is used could help improve privacy as well
as enable new kinds of access control. In this paper, we introduce a new technique for
inferring the purpose of sensitive data usage in the context of Android smartphone apps. We
extract multiple kinds of features from decompiled code, focusing on app-specific features
and text-based features. These features are then used to train a machine learning classifier.
We have evaluated our approach in the context of two sensitive permissions, namely …

In this paper, we introduce a new technique for inferring the purpose of sensitive data usage in the context of Android smartphone apps. We extract multiple kinds of features from decompiled code, focusing on app-specific features and text-based features. These features are then used to train a machine learning classifier. We have evaluated our approach in the context of two sensitive permissions, namely ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION and READ_CONTACT_LIST, and achieved an accuracy of about 85% and 94% respectively in inferring purposes. We have also found that text-based features alone are highly effective in inferring purposes.
