We explain how a differential fault analysis (DFA) works on AES 128, 192 or 256 bits.

We performed a cost analysis study using decision tree modeling to determine whether the use of multiplex PCR testing for respiratory viruses (xTAG RVP test) is a more or less costly strategy than the status quo testing methods used for the diagnosis of respiratory virus infections in pediatric patients. The decision tree model was constructed by using four testing strategies for respiratory vi...

Detrended fluctuation analysis (DFA) and detrended moving average (DMA) are two scaling analysis methods designed to quantify correlations in noisy nonstationary signals. We systematically study the performance of different variants of the DMA method when applied to artificially generated long-range power-law correlated signals with an a priori known scaling exponent alpha(0) and compare them w...

Ab initio protein structure prediction is a challenging problem that requires both an accurate energetic representation of a protein structure and an efficient conformational sampling method for successful protein modeling. In this article, we present an ab initio structure prediction method which combines a recently suggested novel way of fragment assembly, dynamic fragment assembly (DFA) and ...

Difructose dianhydride IV (DFA-IV) is produced from levan, which is a natural polysaccharide that belongs to the fructan family, through the activity of levan fructotransferase (LF) derived from microorganisms. Recently, DFA-IV has been expected to have diverse applications in the food and medical industry. Here, we examined the potential application of DFA-IV forin vitro fertilization (IVF) in...

PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to determine the extent to which vowel metrics are capable of distinguishing healthy from dysarthric speech and among different forms of dysarthria. METHOD A variety of vowel metrics were derived from spectral and temporal measurements of vowel tokens embedded in phrases produced by 45 speakers with dysarthria and 12 speakers with no history of neurologic...

The African penguin is a nesting seabird endemic to southern Africa. In penguins of the genus Spheniscus vocalisations are important for social recognition. However, it is not clear which acoustic features of calls can encode individual identity information. We recorded contact calls and ecstatic display songs of 12 adult birds from a captive colony. For each vocalisation, we measured 31 spectr...

Dynamic Financial Analysis (DFA) is a relatively new discipline of actuarial science targeting risk estimation. The idea of the method is to generate a huge amount of possible scenarios and analyze the obtained samples testing risk versus profits for given strategies on a company model. As the historical data is very often limited a number of methods were selected to multiply the input set and ...

In this paper, fractal dimensional analysis is used to investigate the Tamil Nadu rainfall dynamics. Here, the time series data of Tamil Nadu rainfall (annual, south west and northeast) has been analyzed using Detrended fluctuation analysis (DFA). For estimating the 110 years rainfall data, the scaling exponent analysis is used. The result shows a varying degree of persistence over shorter and ...

In this chapter we discuss how symbolic knowledge in the form of DFAs can be extracted from trained DRNs. We give an overview of various methods that have been proposed for DFA extraction and give a in-depth discussion of two methods that use fundamentally diierent approaches: Dynamic space exploration uses a cluster analysis for identifying DFA states and transitions whereas a proposed machine...
