On the invertibility of finite linear transducers

Ivone Amorim, António Machiavelo, Rogério Reis (2014)

RAIRO - Theoretical Informatics and Applications - Informatique Théorique et Applications

Linear finite transducers underlie a series of schemes for Public Key Cryptography (PKC) proposed in the 90s of the last century. The uninspiring and arid language then used, condemned these works to oblivion. Although some of these schemes were afterwards shown to be insecure, the promise of a new system of PKC relying on different complexity assumptions is still quite exciting. The algorithms there used depend heavily on the results of invertibility of linear transducers. In this paper we introduce...

On the Jensen-Shannon divergence and the variation distance for categorical probability distributions

Jukka Corander, Ulpu Remes, Timo Koski (2021)

Kybernetika

We establish a decomposition of the Jensen-Shannon divergence into a linear combination of a scaled Jeffreys' divergence and a reversed Jensen-Shannon divergence. Upper and lower bounds for the Jensen-Shannon divergence are then found in terms of the squared (total) variation distance. The derivations rely upon the Pinsker inequality and the reverse Pinsker inequality. We use these bounds to prove the asymptotic equivalence of the maximum likelihood estimate and minimum Jensen-Shannon divergence...

On the joint 2-adic complexity of binary multisequences

Lu Zhao, Qiao-Yan Wen (2012)

RAIRO - Theoretical Informatics and Applications - Informatique Théorique et Applications

Joint 2-adic complexity is a new important index of the cryptographic security for multisequences. In this paper, we extend the usual Fourier transform to the case of multisequences and derive an upper bound for the joint 2-adic complexity. Furthermore, for the multisequences with pn-period, we discuss the relation between sequences and their Fourier coefficients. Based on the relation, we determine a lower bound for the number of multisequences with given joint 2-adic complexity.

On the number of zero trace elements in polynomial bases for F2n.

Igor E. Shparlinski (2005)

Revista Matemática Complutense

Let Fq denote the finite field of q elements. O. Ahmadi and A. Menezes have recently considered the question about the possible number of elements with zero trace in polynomial bases of F2n over F2. Here we show that the Weil bound implies that there is such a basis with n + O(log n) zero-trace elements.

On the optimality of a new class of 2D recursive filters

Leopoldo Jetto (1999)

Kybernetika

The purpose of this paper is to prove the minimum variance property of a new class of 2D, recursive, finite-dimensional filters. The filtering algorithms are derived from general basic assumptions underlying the stochastic modelling of an image as a 2D gaussian random field. An appealing feature of the proposed algorithms is that the image pixels are estimated one at a time; this makes it possible to save computation time and memory requirement with respect to the filtering procedures based on strip...
