this study is an investigation of fuzzy linear regression model for crisp/fuzzy input and fuzzy output data. a least absolutes deviations approach to construct such a model is developed by introducing and applying a new metric on the space of fuzzy numbers. the proposed approach, which can deal with both symmetric and non-symmetric fuzzy observations, is compared with several existing models by...

Fuzzy extractors have been proposed in 2004 by Dodis et al. as a secure way to generate cryptographic keys from noisy sources. In recent years, fuzzy extractors have become an important building block in hardware security due to their use in secure key generation based on Physical Unclonable Functions (PUFs). Fuzzy extractors are provably secure against passive attackers. A year later Boyen et ...
