The expressiveness of Boolean Algebras is significantly extended by the Boolean Differential Calculus (BDC). The additionally defined differentials of Boolean variables, differentials and further differential operators of Boolean functions as well as several derivative operations of Boolean functions allow to model changes of function values together with changes of the values of variables and ...

This paper proposes a novel structured vectorial semantic framework, incorporating cognitively-motivated ‘gist’ semantics as selectional restrictions in interactive vectorial-semantic parsing. Applying vectorial semantic techniques (in particular, relational clustering over dependent headwords) in this extended framework has a predictable positive impact on parsing accuracy. The vectorial repre...

Since 2003, Algebraic Attacks have received a lot of attention in the cryptography literature. In this context, algebraic immunity quantifies the resistance of a Boolean function to the standard algebraic attack of the pseudo-random generators using it as a nonlinear Boolean function. A high value of algebraic immunity is now an absolutely necessary cryptographic criterion for a resistance to a...
