However, in settings where such failure can happen with substantial probability, one needs to provide guarantees even for the bad case. A typical example is where a (possibly weak) password is used instead of a secure cryptographic key to protect a session, the bad event being that the adversary correctly guesses the password. In a situation with multiple such sessions, a per-session guarantee is desired: any session for which the password has not been guessed remains secure, independently of whether other sessions have been compromised. A new formalism for stating such gracefully degrading security guarantees is introduced and applied to analyze the examples of password-based message authentication and password-based encryption. While a natural per-message guarantee is achieved for authentication, the situation of password-based encryption is more delicate: a per-session confidentiality guarantee only holds against attackers for which the distribution of password-guessing effort over the sessions is known in advance. In contrast, for more general attackers without such a restriction, a strong, composable notion of security cannot be achieved.","lang":"eng"}],"intvolume":" 27","month":"01","main_file_link":[{"open_access":"1","url":"https://eprint.iacr.org/2016/166"}],"scopus_import":"1","date_updated":"2021-01-12T08:05:08Z","department":[{"_id":"KrPi"}],"_id":"5887","status":"public","article_type":"original","type":"journal_article"},{"date_created":"2019-03-21T12:12:19Z","volume":11414,"date_published":"2019-02-23T00:00:00Z","doi":"10.1007/978-3-030-14085-4_3","page":"27-37","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"publication":"21st IAPR International Conference on Discrete Geometry for Computer Imagery","day":"23","publication_status":"published","year":"2019","publication_identifier":{"isbn":["978-3-6624-6446-5","978-3-6624-6447-2"],"issn":["0302-9743","1611-3349"]},"intvolume":" 11414","month":"02","place":"Berlin, Heidelberg","alternative_title":["LNCS"],"quality_controlled":"1","publisher":"Springer Berlin Heidelberg","oa_version":"None","abstract":[{"lang":"eng","text":"We propose a new non-orthogonal basis to express the 3D Euclidean space in terms of a regular grid.

To get a VDF we make this protocol non-interactive using the Fiat-Shamir heuristic.The motivation for this work comes from the Chia blockchain design, which uses a VDF as akey ingredient.

We ask the following weak recovery question: What is the minimum number of measurements n needed to produce an estimator 𝑥^(𝑦) that is positively correlated with the signal 𝑥? We consider the case of Gaussian vectors 𝑎𝑎𝑖. We prove that—in the high-dimensional limit—a sharp phase transition takes place, and we locate the threshold in the regime of vanishingly small noise. For 𝑛≤𝑑−𝑜(𝑑), no estimator can do significantly better than random and achieve a strictly positive correlation. For 𝑛≥𝑑+𝑜(𝑑), a simple spectral estimator achieves a positive correlation. Surprisingly, numerical simulations with the same spectral estimator demonstrate promising performance with realistic sensing matrices. Spectral methods are used to initialize non-convex optimization algorithms in phase retrieval, and our approach can boost the performance in this setting as well. Our impossibility result is based on classical information-theoretic arguments. The spectral algorithm computes the leading eigenvector of a weighted empirical covariance matrix. We obtain a sharp characterization of the spectral properties of this random matrix using tools from free probability and generalizing a recent result by Lu and Li. Both the upper bound and lower bound generalize beyond phase retrieval to measurements 𝑦𝑖 produced according to a generalized linear model. As a by-product of our analysis, we compare the threshold of the proposed spectral method with that of a message passing algorithm."}],"month":"06","intvolume":" 19","main_file_link":[{"open_access":"1","url":"https://arxiv.org/abs/1708.05932"}],"language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"publication_identifier":{"eissn":["1615-3383"]},"publication_status":"published","volume":19,"issue":"3"},{"_id":"6672","status":"public","type":"journal_article","extern":"1","user_id":"2DF688A6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","date_updated":"2021-01-12T08:08:30Z","citation":{"ieee":"J.-D.

This structure has been implemented and was shown to lead to good triangulations in $\\mathbb{R}^2$ and on surfaces embedded in $\\mathbb{R}^3$ as detailed in our experimental companion paper. In this paper, we study theoretical aspects of our structure. Given a finite set of points $\\mathcal{P}$ in a domain $\\Omega$ equipped with a Riemannian metric, we compare the discrete Riemannian Voronoi diagram of $\\mathcal{P}$ to its Riemannian Voronoi diagram. Both diagrams have dual structures called the discrete Riemannian Delaunay and the Riemannian Delaunay complex. We provide conditions that guarantee that these dual structures are identical. It then follows from previous results that the discrete Riemannian Delaunay complex can be embedded in $\\Omega$ under sufficient conditions, leading to an anisotropic triangulation with curved simplices. Furthermore, we show that, under similar conditions, the simplices of this triangulation can be straightened.","lang":"eng"}],"month":"05","intvolume":" 48","publisher":"Society for Industrial & Applied Mathematics (SIAM)","quality_controlled":"1","oa":1,"main_file_link":[{"open_access":"1","url":"https://arxiv.org/abs/1703.06487"}],"day":"21","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"publication":"SIAM Journal on Computing","publication_identifier":{"issn":["0097-5397"],"eissn":["1095-7111"]},"publication_status":"published","year":"2019","volume":48,"doi":"10.1137/17m1152292","issue":"3","date_published":"2019-05-21T00:00:00Z","date_created":"2019-07-24T08:42:12Z","page":"1046-1097"},{"quality_controlled":"1","publisher":"Schloss Dagstuhl - Leibniz-Zentrum für Informatik","oa":1,"day":"01","publication":"46th International Colloquium on Automata, Languages and Programming","has_accepted_license":"1","year":"2019","doi":"10.4230/LIPICS.ICALP.2019.77","date_published":"2019-07-01T00:00:00Z","date_created":"2019-07-29T12:23:29Z","page":"77:1-77:12","project":[{"call_identifier":"FP7","_id":"25FBA906-B435-11E9-9278-68D0E5697425","name":"Discrete Optimization in Computer Vision: Theory and Practice","grant_number":"616160"}],"user_id":"2DF688A6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","citation":{"ieee":"V.

A VCSP instance is given by a finite set of variables, a finite domain of labels, and an objective function to be minimized. This function is represented as a sum of terms where each term depends on a subset of the variables. To obtain different classes of optimization problems, one can restrict all terms to come from a fixed set Γ of cost functions, called a language. \r\nRecent breakthrough results have established a complete complexity classification of such classes with respect to language Γ: if all cost functions in Γ satisfy a certain algebraic condition then all Γ-instances can be solved in polynomial time, otherwise the problem is NP-hard. Unfortunately, testing this condition for a given language Γ is known to be NP-hard. We thus study exponential algorithms for this meta-problem. We show that the tractability condition of a finite-valued language Γ can be tested in O(3‾√3|D|⋅poly(size(Γ))) time, where D is the domain of Γ and poly(⋅) is some fixed polynomial. We also obtain a matching lower bound under the Strong Exponential Time Hypothesis (SETH). More precisely, we prove that for any constant δ<1 there is no O(3‾√3δ|D|) algorithm, assuming that SETH holds.","lang":"eng"}],"month":"07","intvolume":" 132","scopus_import":1,"alternative_title":["LIPIcs"],"file":[{"creator":"dernst","file_size":575475,"date_updated":"2020-07-14T12:47:38Z","file_name":"2019_LIPICS_Kolmogorov.pdf","date_created":"2019-07-31T07:01:45Z","relation":"main_file","access_level":"open_access","content_type":"application/pdf","checksum":"f5ebee8eec6ae09e30365578ee63a492","file_id":"6738"}],"language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"publication_identifier":{"isbn":["978-3-95977-109-2"],"issn":["1868-8969"]},"publication_status":"published","volume":132,"ec_funded":1,"_id":"6725","status":"public","type":"conference","tmp":{"legal_code_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/legalcode","image":"/images/cc_by.png","name":"Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (CC-BY 4.0)","short":"CC BY (4.0)"},"conference":{"name":"ICALP 2019: International Colloquim on Automata, Languages and Programming","location":"Patras, Greece","end_date":"2019-07-12","start_date":"2019-07-08"},"ddc":["000"],"date_updated":"2021-01-12T08:08:40Z","file_date_updated":"2020-07-14T12:47:38Z","department":[{"_id":"VlKo"}]},{"_id":"6726","series_title":"LNCS","status":"public","type":"book_chapter","conference":{"name":"AFRICACRYPT: International Conference on Cryptology in Africa","end_date":"2019-07-11","location":"Rabat, Morocco","start_date":"2019-07-09"},"date_updated":"2023-02-23T12:50:15Z","department":[{"_id":"KrPi"}],"oa_version":"Preprint","abstract":[{"lang":"eng","text":"Randomness is an essential part of any secure cryptosystem, but many constructions rely on distributions that are not uniform. This is particularly true for lattice based cryptosystems, which more often than not make use of discrete Gaussian distributions over the integers. For practical purposes it is crucial to evaluate the impact that approximation errors have on the security of a scheme to provide the best possible trade-off between security and performance. Recent years have seen surprising results allowing to use relatively low precision while maintaining high levels of security. A key insight in these results is that sampling a distribution with low relative error can provide very strong security guarantees. Since floating point numbers provide guarantees on the relative approximation error, they seem a suitable tool in this setting, but it is not obvious which sampling algorithms can actually profit from them. While previous works have shown that inversion sampling can be adapted to provide a low relative error (Pöppelmann et al., CHES 2014; Prest, ASIACRYPT 2017), other works have called into question if this is possible for other sampling techniques (Zheng et al., Eprint report 2018/309). In this work, we consider all sampling algorithms that are popular in the cryptographic setting and analyze the relationship of floating point precision and the resulting relative error. We show that all of the algorithms either natively achieve a low relative error or can be adapted to do so."}],"place":"Cham","month":"06","intvolume":" 11627","scopus_import":"1","main_file_link":[{"url":"https://eprint.iacr.org/2019/068","open_access":"1"}],"language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"publication_identifier":{"isbn":["978-3-0302-3695-3"],"issn":["0302-9743","1611-3349"],"eisbn":["978-3-0302-3696-0"]},"publication_status":"published","volume":11627,"ec_funded":1,"project":[{"name":"Teaching Old Crypto New Tricks","grant_number":"682815","_id":"258AA5B2-B435-11E9-9278-68D0E5697425","call_identifier":"H2020"}],"user_id":"8b945eb4-e2f2-11eb-945a-df72226e66a9","citation":{"chicago":"Walter, Michael. “Sampling the Integers with Low Relative Error.” In Progress in Cryptology – AFRICACRYPT 2019, edited by J Buchmann, A Nitaj, and T Rachidi, 11627:157–80.

Previous approaches require one to compute the reliability of the N synthetic channels and then use only those that are sufficiently reliable. However, we know from two independent works by Schürch and by Bardet et al. that the synthetic channels are partially ordered with respect to degradation. Hence, it is natural to ask whether the partial order can be exploited to reduce the computational burden of the construction problem. We show that, if we take advantage of the partial order, we can construct a polar code by computing the reliability of roughly a fraction 1/ log 3/2 N of the synthetic channels. In particular, we prove that N/ log 3/2 N is a lower bound on the number of synthetic channels to be considered and such a bound is tight up to a multiplicative factor log log N. This set of roughly N/ log 3/2 N synthetic channels is universal, in the sense that it allows one to construct polar codes for any W, and it can be identified by solving a maximum matching problem on a bipartite graph. Our proof technique consists of reducing the construction problem to the problem of computing the maximum cardinality of an antichain for a suitable partially ordered set. As such, this method is general, and it can be used to further improve the complexity of the construction problem, in case a refined partial order on the synthetic channels of polar codes is discovered.","lang":"eng"}],"oa_version":"Preprint","author":[{"id":"27EB676C-8706-11E9-9510-7717E6697425","first_name":"Marco","orcid":"0000-0002-3242-7020","full_name":"Mondelli, Marco","last_name":"Mondelli"},{"first_name":"Hamed","last_name":"Hassani","full_name":"Hassani, Hamed"},{"first_name":"Rudiger","full_name":"Urbanke, Rudiger","last_name":"Urbanke"}],"external_id":{"arxiv":["1612.05295"]},"title":"Construction of polar codes with sublinear complexity","date_updated":"2023-02-23T12:50:20Z","citation":{"chicago":"Mondelli, Marco, Hamed Hassani, and Rudiger Urbanke. “Construction of Polar Codes with Sublinear Complexity.” IEEE.

We consider a model with feature vectors x∈ℝd, r hidden units with weights {wi}1≤i≤r and output y∈ℝ, i.e., y=∑ri=1σ(w𝖳ix), with activation functions given by low-degree polynomials. In particular, if σ(x)=a0+a1x+a3x3, we prove that no polynomial-time learning algorithm can outperform the trivial predictor that assigns to each example the response variable 𝔼(y), when d3/2≪r≪d2. Our conclusion holds for a `natural data distribution', namely standard Gaussian feature vectors x, and output distributed according to a two-layer neural network with random isotropic weights, and under a certain complexity-theoretic assumption on tensor decomposition. Roughly speaking, we assume that no polynomial-time algorithm can substantially outperform current methods for tensor decomposition based on the sum-of-squares hierarchy. We also prove generalizations of this statement for higher degree polynomial activations, and non-random weight vectors. Remarkably, several existing algorithms for learning two-layer networks with rigorous guarantees are based on tensor decomposition. Our results support the idea that this is indeed the core computational difficulty in learning such networks, under the stated generative model for the data. As a side result, we show that under this model learning the network requires accurate learning of its weights, a property that does not hold in a more general setting.

Successive-cancellation-based (SC-based) decoders, such as SC list (SCL) and SC flip (SCF), provide a reasonable error performance for polar codes at the cost of low decoding speed. Fast SC-based decoders, such as Fast-SSC, Fast-SSCL, and Fast-SSCF, identify the special constituent codes in a polar code graph off-line, produce a list of operations, store the list in memory, and feed the list to the decoder to decode the constituent codes in order efficiently, thus increasing the decoding speed. However, the list of operations is dependent on the code rate and as the rate changes, a new list is produced, making fast SC-based decoders not rate-flexible. In this paper, we propose a completely rate-flexible fast SC-based decoder by creating the list of operations directly in hardware, with low implementation complexity. We further propose a hardware architecture implementing the proposed method and show that the area occupation of the rate-flexible fast SC-based decoder in this paper is only 38% of the total area of the memory-based base-line decoder when 5G code rates are supported.

In bidding games, in each turn, we hold an auction between the two players to determine which player moves the token. Bidding games have largely been studied with concrete bidding mechanisms that are variants of a first-price auction: in each turn both players simultaneously submit bids, the higher\r\nbidder moves the token, and pays his bid to the lower bidder in Richman bidding, to the bank in poorman bidding, and in taxman bidding, the bid is split between the other player and the bank according to a predefined constant factor. Bidding games are deterministic games. They have an intriguing connection with a fragment of stochastic games called \r\n randomturn games. We study, for the first time, a combination of bidding games with probabilistic behavior; namely, we study bidding games that are played on Markov decision processes, where the players bid for the right to choose the next action, which determines the probability distribution according to which the next vertex is chosen. We study parity and meanpayoff bidding games on MDPs and extend results from the deterministic bidding setting to the probabilistic one.","lang":"eng"}],"intvolume":" 11674","month":"09","alternative_title":["LNCS"],"scopus_import":1,"ddc":["000"],"date_updated":"2021-01-12T08:09:12Z","file_date_updated":"2020-07-14T12:47:41Z","department":[{"_id":"ToHe"}],"_id":"6822","status":"public","conference":{"start_date":"2019-09-11","location":"Brussels, Belgium","end_date":"2019-09-13","name":"RP: Reachability Problems"},"type":"conference"},{"ec_funded":1,"volume":140,"publication_status":"published","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"file":[{"relation":"main_file","access_level":"open_access","content_type":"application/pdf","checksum":"e1f0e4061212454574f34a1368d018ec","file_id":"6922","creator":"kschuh","file_size":730112,"date_updated":"2020-07-14T12:47:43Z","file_name":"2019_LIPIcs_Chatterjee.pdf","date_created":"2019-10-01T08:20:30Z"}],"scopus_import":"1","alternative_title":["LIPIcs"],"intvolume":" 140","month":"08","abstract":[{"text":"The fundamental model-checking problem, given as input a model and a specification, asks for the algorithmic verification of whether the model satisfies the specification. Two classical models for reactive systems are graphs and Markov decision processes (MDPs). A basic specification formalism in the verification of reactive systems is the strong fairness (aka Streett) objective, where given different types of requests and corresponding grants, the requirement is that for each type, if the request event happens infinitely often, then the corresponding grant event must also happen infinitely often. All omega-regular objectives can be expressed as Streett objectives and hence they are canonical in verification. Consider graphs/MDPs with n vertices, m edges, and a Streett objectives with k pairs, and let b denote the size of the description of the Streett objective for the sets of requests and grants. The current best-known algorithm for the problem requires time O(min(n^2, m sqrt{m log n}) + b log n). In this work we present randomized near-linear time algorithms, with expected running time O~(m + b), where the O~ notation hides poly-log factors. Our randomized algorithms are near-linear in the size of the input, and hence optimal up to poly-log factors.

In the worm's nervous system, neurons communicate through nonlinear time-varying synaptic links established amongst them by their particular wiring structure. This property enables neurons to express liquid time-constants dynamics and therefore allows the network to originate complex behaviors with a small number of neurons. We identify neuron-pair communication motifs as design operators and use them to configure compact neuronal network structures to govern sequential robotic tasks. The networks are systematically designed to map the environmental observations to motor actions, by their hierarchical topology from sensory neurons, through recurrently-wired interneurons, to motor neurons. The networks are then parametrized in a supervised-learning scheme by a search-based algorithm. We demonstrate that obtained networks realize interpretable dynamics. We evaluate their performance in controlling mobile and arm robots, and compare their attributes to other artificial neural network-based control agents. Finally, we experimentally show their superior resilience to environmental noise, compared to the existing machine learning-based methods.","lang":"eng"}],"oa_version":"Submitted Version","scopus_import":"1","alternative_title":["ICRA"],"month":"05","publication_status":"published","publication_identifier":{"isbn":["9781538660270"]},"language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"file":[{"file_name":"2019_ICRA_Lechner.pdf","date_created":"2020-10-08T17:30:38Z","file_size":3265107,"date_updated":"2020-10-08T17:30:38Z","creator":"dernst","success":1,"file_id":"8636","checksum":"f5545a6b60c3ffd01feb3613f81d03b6","content_type":"application/pdf","relation":"main_file","access_level":"open_access"}],"volume":"2019-May","_id":"6888","conference":{"name":"ICRA: International Conference on Robotics and Automation","start_date":"2019-05-20","location":"Montreal, QC, Canada","end_date":"2019-05-24"},"type":"conference","status":"public","date_updated":"2021-01-12T08:09:28Z","ddc":["000"],"department":[{"_id":"ToHe"}],"file_date_updated":"2020-10-08T17:30:38Z","oa":1,"quality_controlled":"1","publisher":"IEEE","year":"2019","has_accepted_license":"1","publication":"Proceedings - IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation","day":"01","date_created":"2019-09-18T08:09:51Z","date_published":"2019-05-01T00:00:00Z","doi":"10.1109/icra.2019.8793840","article_number":"8793840","project":[{"call_identifier":"FWF","_id":"25F42A32-B435-11E9-9278-68D0E5697425","name":"The Wittgenstein Prize","grant_number":"Z211"}],"citation":{"chicago":"Lechner, Mathias, Ramin Hasani, Manuel Zimmer, Thomas A Henzinger, and Radu Grosu. “Designing Worm-Inspired Neural Networks for Interpretable Robotic Control.” In Proceedings - IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation, Vol. 2019–May.

Such games are central in formal methods since they model the interaction between a non-terminating system and its environment. In bidding games the players bid for the right to move the token: in each round, the players simultaneously submit bids, and the higher bidder moves the token and pays the other player. Bidding games are known to have a clean and elegant mathematical structure that relies on the ability of the players to submit arbitrarily small bids. Many applications, however, require a fixed granularity for the bids, which can represent, for example, the monetary value expressed in cents. We study, for the first time, the combination of discrete-bidding and infinite-duration games. Our most important result proves that these games form a large determined subclass of concurrent games, where determinacy is the strong property that there always exists exactly one player who can guarantee winning the game. In particular, we show that, in contrast to non-discrete bidding games, the mechanism with which tied bids are resolved plays an important role in discrete-bidding games. We study several natural tie-breaking mechanisms and show that, while some do not admit determinacy, most natural mechanisms imply determinacy for every pair of initial budgets.
