Abstract:

In this paper, we propose a new method of extracting the features of keystrokes. The Hawkes process based on exponential excitation kernel was used to model the sequence of keystrokes in fixed text, and the intensity function vector and adjacency matrix of the model obtained through training were regarded as the characteristics of the keystrokes. A visual analysis was carried out on the CMU keystroke raw data and the feature data extracted using the proposed method. We used one-class classifier to compare the classification effect of CMU keystroke raw data and the feature data extracted by the Hawkes process model and POHMM model. The experimental results show that the feature data extracted using the proposed method contains rich information to distinguish users. In addition, the feature data extracted using the proposed method has a slightly better classification performance than the original CMU keystroke data for some users who are not easy to distinguish.
