SURVIVAL AND DEVELOPMENT OF CADRA CAUTELLA (WALKER) (LEPIDOPTERA: PYRALIDAE) ON COCOA BEAN AND COCOA POWDER


Exploiting the Central Reduction in Lattice-Based Cryptography

This paper questions the side-channel security of central reduction technique, which is widely adapted in efficient implementations of Lattice-Based Cryptography (LBC).We show that the central reduction leads to a vulnerability by creating a strong dependency between the power consumption and the sign of sensitive intermediate values.We exploit thi

Towards binary encoding in Bidirectional Associative Memories

Bidirectional Associative Memories (BAMs) are Artificial Neural Networks frequently utilized in cognitive modeling.While bipolar encoding is commonly used in BAMs for optimal performance, binary encoding presents interesting properties.As such, this study introduces a novel transmission function for binary encoding and compares its performance to t
