Abstract
A system and method for file type identification involving extraction of a file-print of a file, the file-print being a unique or practically-unique representation of statistical characteristics associated with the distribution of bits in the binary contents of the file, similar to a fingerprint. The file-print is then passed to a machine learning algorithm that has been trained to recognize file types from their file-prints. The machine learning algorithm returns a predicted file type and, in some cases, a probability of correctness of the prediction. The file may then be encoded using an encoding algorithm chosen based on the predicted file type.
