We show that replacing the usual sifting step of the standard quantum-key-distribution protocol BB84 by a one-way reverse reconciliation procedure increases its robustness against photon-number-splitting (PNS) attacks to the level of the…
Randomized Aggregatable Privacy-Preserving Ordinal Response, or RAPPOR, is a technology for crowdsourcing statistics from end-user client software, anonymously, with strong privacy guarantees. In short, RAPPORs allow the forest of client…
Linear minimum mean-square error (L-MMSE) equalization is among the most popular methods for data detection in massive multi-user multiple-input multiple-output (MU-MIMO) wireless systems. While L-MMSE equalization enables near-optimal…
Transactional memory is a mechanism that manages thread synchronisation on behalf of a programmer so that blocks of code execute with an illusion of atomicity. The main safety criterion for transactional memory is opacity, which defines…
This paper takes a parallel learning approach for robust and transparent AI. A deep neural network is trained in parallel on multiple tasks, where each task is trained only on a subset of the network resources. Each subset consists of…
In traditional runtime verification, a system is typically observed by a monolithic monitor. Enforcing privacy in such settings is computationally expensive, as it necessitates heavy cryptographic primitives. Therefore, privacy-preserving…
Training large language models at 4-bit precision is critical for efficiency. We show that nGPT, an architecture that constrains weights and hidden representations to the unit hypersphere, is inherently more robust to low-precision…
