The trade-off between the security and efficiency of a lightweight crypto design is interlinked with the fine harnessing of entropy sources. Merging this source with a finite random sequence is an ...

Abstract: With its inherent causal reasoning and superior capacity for handling uncertainty, the belief rule base (BRB) has been widely applied in complex systems modeling. As a generalization of ...

Ask the publishers to restore access to 500,000+ books. An icon used to represent a menu that can be toggled by interacting with this icon. A line drawing of the Internet Archive headquarters building ...

The existing functions are often used to generate cryptographic keys in charts. The problem is they limit per-byte entropy e.g. randNumeric only uses 10 values out of 256 values. The "best" is ...

Abstract: This article presents a novel variable-parameter variable-activation-function finite-time neural network (VPA-FTNN) to deal with joint-angle drift issues of redundant-robotic arms. Different ...

Many types of economic problems require that we consider two variables at the same time. A typical example is the relation between price of a commodity and the demand or supply of that commodity. The ...

Objective: The global concern surrounding the aging population has brought the well-being of older individuals to the forefront of societal attention. Unfortunately, studies focusing on the well-being ...
