Abstract. Current numerical methods for assessing the statistical significance of local alignments with gaps are time consuming. Analytical solutions thus far have been limited to ...
The Feedback with Carry Shift Registers (FCSRs) have been proposed as an alternative to Linear Feedback Shift Registers (LFSRs) for the design of stream ciphers. FCSRs have good st...
Abstract Many attacks on encryption schemes rely on statistical considerations using plaintext/ciphertext pairs to find some information on the key. We provide here simple formula...
Algorithmic post-processing is used to overcome statistical deficiencies of physical random number generators. We show that the quasigroup based approach for post-processing rando...
For a large number of data management problems, it would be very useful to be able to obtain a few samples from a data set, and to use the samples to guess the largest (or smalles...
