A new approach on cryptanalysis is proposed where the goal is to explore the fundamental limits of a specific class of attacks against a particular cryptosystem. As a first step, the approach is applied on ABSG, which is an LFSR-based…

In this paper, we propose a systematic low density generator matrix (LDGM) code ensemble, which is defined by the Bernoulli process. We prove that, under maximum likelihood (ML) decoding, the proposed ensemble can achieve the capacity of…

A simple binary model to compute the degree of balancedness in the output sequence of LFSR-combinational generators has been developed. The computational method is based exclusively on the handling of binary strings by means of logic…

The use of three extractors, fed by linear feedback shift registers (LFSR) for generating pseudo-random bit streams is investigated. Specifically, a standard LFSR is combined with a von Neumann extractor, a modified LFSR, extended by the…

Stochastic unary computing provides low-area circuits. However, the required area consuming stochastic number generators (SNGs) in these circuits can diminish their overall gain in area, particularly if several SNGs are required. We propose…

We evaluate typical performance of irregular low-density generator-matrix (LDGM) codes, which is defined by sparse matrices with arbitrary irregular bit degree distribution and arbitrary check degree distribution, for lossy compression. We…

This thesis concerns sequential-access data compression, i.e., by algorithms that read the input one or more times from beginning to end. In one chapter we consider adaptive prefix coding, for which we must read the input character by…

In this paper, we study the use of GF(q)-quantized LDGM codes for binary source coding. By employing quantization, it is possible to obtain binary codewords with a non-uniform distribution. The obtained statistics is hence suitable for…

The paper introduces a new technique for compressing Binary Decision Diagrams in those cases where random access is not required. Using this technique, compression and decompression can be done in linear time in the size of the BDD and…

We consider the problem of making a quick decision in favor of one of two possible physical signal models while the numerical measurements are acquired by sensing devices featuring minimal digitization complexity. Therefore, the digital…

The sequences produced by the cryptographic sequence generator known as the shrinking generator can be modelled as the output sequences of linear elementary cellular automata. These sequences are composed of interleaved m-sequences produced…

Stochastic Computing (SC) is an unconventional computing paradigm processing data in the form of random bit-streams. The accuracy and energy efficiency of SC systems highly depend on the stochastic number generator (SNG) unit that converts…

Generating random bit streams is required in various applications, most notably cyber-security. Ensuring high-quality and robust randomness is crucial to mitigate risks associated with predictability and system compromise. True random…

We revisit Nisan's classical pseudorandom generator (PRG) for space-bounded computation (STOC 1990) and its applications in streaming algorithms. We describe a new generator, HashPRG, that can be thought of as a symmetric version of Nisan's…

Communication over the binary erasure channel (BEC) using low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes and belief propagation (BP) decoding is considered. The average bit error probability of an irregular LDPC code ensemble after a fixed number of…

Random bit generators (RBGs) are key components of a variety of information processing applications ranging from simulations to cryptography. In particular, cryptographic systems require "strong" RBGs that produce high-entropy bit…

Variable-length compression without prefix-free constraints and with side-information available at both encoder and decoder is considered. Instead of requiring the code to be error-free, we allow for it to have a non-vanishing error…

While iterative quantizers based on low-density generator-matrix (LDGM) codes have been shown to be able to achieve near-ideal distortion performance with comparatively moderate block length and computational complexity requirements, their…

The paper study counter-dependent pseudorandom generators; the latter are generators such that their state transition function (and output function) is being modified dynamically while working: For such a generator the recurrence sequence…

This paper proposes an efficient bitwise solution to the single-channel source separation task. Most dictionary-based source separation algorithms rely on iterative update rules during the run time, which becomes computationally costly…
