Abstract :
Fuzzy multiple signature analysis seeks the middle ground between the complex implementation and high overhead of conventional multiple signature analysis and the less-desirable error detection rates of single signature analysis. This scheme relaxes the restriction of one-to-one reference-signature correspondence required by the conventional multiple signature scheme, yet retains significant fault coverage. It also avoids the high fault-grading CPU times of the single signature scheme
