We introduce a lattice-based group signature scheme that provides several noticeable improvements over the contemporary ones: simpler construction, weaker hardness assumptions, and shorter sizes of keys and signatures. Moreover, our scheme can be transformed into the ring setting, resulting in a scheme based on ideal lattices, in which the public key and signature both have bitsize Õ(n·logN), f...

Cryptographic multilinear maps have many applications, such as multipartite key exchange and software obfuscation. However, the encodings of three current constructions are “noisy” and their multilinearity levels are fixed and bounded in advance. In this paper, we describe a candidate construction of ideal multilinear maps by using ideal lattices, which supports arbitrary multilinearity levels....

Holistic methods developed for small, static lexicons are not easily extended to the large and dynamic lexicon scenario owing to word-level feature variability and paucity of training samples. A methodology of coarse holistic features and heuristic prediction of ideal features from ASCII is proposed to address these issues. The proposed methodology is based on the axiom that real-world examples...

We describe the first domain extender for ideal ciphers, i.e. we show a construction that is indifferentiable from a 2n-bit ideal cipher, given a n-bit ideal cipher. Our construction is based on a 3round Feistel, and is more efficient than first building a n-bit random oracle from a n-bit ideal cipher (as in [6]) and then a 2n-bit ideal cipher from a n-bit random oracle (as in [7], using a 6-ro...

In this paper, we present a practical and provably secure two-pass AKE protocol from ideal lattices, which is conceptually simple and has similarities to the Diffie-Hellman based protocols such as HMQV (CRYPTO 2005) and OAKE (CCS 2013). Our protocol does not rely on other cryptographic primitives—in particular, it does not use signatures—simplifying the protocol and resting the security solely ...

abstract:the paper begins by noting that proposals involving significant developments in the regional tradearchitecture are being developed within regional processes that in some cases are simultaneouslypursuing other dimensions of regional economic integration: monetary and financial cooperation inthe case of asean + 3, and the establishment of a common market in the case of asean. at leastthr...

abstract background: transcranial doppler ultrasonography results have not been previously studied in among iranian sickle cell anemia patients. the present study was performed to evaluate the pattern of intracranial flow velocities among iranian children with sickle cell anemia and the hematological parameters that can affect the time-averaged mean of maximum velocity in major intracranial art...

non-hodgkin lymphoma is very uncommon in infancy and skin as the primary site of involvement in non-hodgkin lymphoma is rarely encountered. we describe a 10-month-old infant with t-cell non-hodgkin lymphoma who presented with multiple skin nodules as the predominant feature of her disease. the clinical manifestations, treatment strategy and disease outcome are reviewed. key words: non-hodgkin l...

background and aim: post-traumatic stress disorder is one of the anxiety disorders which occur in postpartum period. the prevalence of ptsd – induced by preeclampsia has been already reported as 28%, however no study was found to compare ptsd in primiparous and multiparous women. this study was therefore conducted to compare ptsd in primiparous and multiparous women. methods: this comparative d...
