Prominent Binary-Feature (Permissions) Frequencies for Android Mobile Benign Apps and Malware Datasets

The following academic datasets provided the frequencies of prominent binary-features, namely Android application permission requests* for the negative and positive classes. They are used in analyzing the dataset dissimilarities via the method proposed by Gürol Canbek.
