A detection framework for semantic code clones and obfuscated code

作者：

Highlights：

• Detecting obfuscated code and code clones based on semantics is challenging.

• Unique dual detection framework proposed for both code obfuscation and clones.

• Novel code semantic features are used based on Java BDG, PDG & AST.

• Extensive experiments established the superiority of our framework.
