One of the main security requirements for symmetric-key block ciphers is resistance against differential cryptanalysis. This is commonly assessed by counting the number of active substitution boxes (S ...

We consider the active learning problem, which aims to select the most representative points. Out of many existing active learning techniques, optimum experimental design (OED) has received ...

The algorithm allows researchers to reconstruct how abundant different block-lengths are present within a copolymer sample, giving a much more detailed picture of the material's internal structure.
