Microsoft Threat Protection Intelligence and Intel Labs are collaborating for a project named STAMINA.
STAMINA: Static Malware As Image Network Analysis is a technique based on Deep Learning.
What is Project STAMINA?
STAMINA focus on detecting malware using deep learning techniques. It converts the malicious code into 2 dimensional images. Then the images can be used to analyze the characteristics of malware and classifies according to their types.

The 2D images are fed into the deep neural network which is trained with 60% of the known malware samples. The DNN scans and identify the image as clean or infected. This Image based technique achieves 99.07% of accuracy.
