# GlyphNet: Homoglyph Domains Dataset

Data for detecting [homoglyph](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IDN_homograph_attack)
phishing domains (e.g. `facebook.com` spoofed with visually-similar Unicode
characters). Every genuine domain is paired with a synthetically generated
homoglyph variant, and each domain is also rendered to a 256x256 grayscale image
so the task can be tackled as text **or** image classification.

Paper: [arXiv:2306.10392](https://arxiv.org/abs/2306.10392) ·
Code: [github.com/Akshat4112/Glyphnet](https://github.com/Akshat4112/Glyphnet)

## Configs & splits

Both configs share the same `train` / `validation` / `test` split (70/20/10).
Splits are assigned **per pair** (seeded), so a genuine domain and its homoglyph
always fall in the same split - preventing leakage between near-identical pairs.

| Config | Rows | Fields |
|--------|------|--------|
| `pairs`  | 1,285,579 pairs | `domain` (genuine), `homoglyphs` (spoofed), `pair_id` |
| `images` | 2,571,158 images | `image` (256x256 grayscale PNG), `label` (`real`/`phish`), `text`, `pair_id` |

`pair_id` links the two `images` rows (one `real`, one `phish`) that came from
the same source pair, and matches the `pair_id` in the `pairs` config.

```python
from datasets import load_dataset

pairs  = load_dataset("Akshat4112/Glyphnet", "pairs")
images = load_dataset("Akshat4112/Glyphnet", "images")
train_img = images["train"]        # or "validation" / "test"
```

## How it was generated

Homoglyphs are produced by substituting one or two characters with Unicode
confusables (`code/dataGeneration.py`). Images are rendered with the **DejaVu
Sans** font - Arial (used in the paper) is proprietary and not redistributed
here, so glyph shapes may differ slightly from the original figures.

## Intended uses & limitations

- Intended for research on homoglyph / IDN-homograph phishing detection.
- Homoglyphs are **synthetic**, not harvested from real attacks, so the
  distribution may not match live phishing in the wild.
- The genuine and spoofed strings within a pair are near-identical; always
  respect the provided splits (or group by `pair_id`) to avoid leakage.
- Rendering font differs from the paper (DejaVu Sans vs Arial).
