This paper introduces a novel class of computational problems, the gap problems, which can be considered as a dual to the class of the decision problems. We show the relationship a...
With the large and increasing amount of visual information available in digital libraries and the Web, efficient and robust systems for image retrieval are urgently needed. In thi...
We present a general biometric hash generation scheme based on vector quantization of multiple feature subsets selected with genetic optimization. The quantization of subsets overc...
Abstract. In this paper, we give a first example of identity based undeniable signature using pairings over elliptic curves. We extend to the identity based setting the security m...
We investigate several previously suggested scenarios of instantiating random oracles (ROs) with “realizable” primitives in cryptographic schemes. As candidates for such “in...
