Combining different cryptanalytic methods to attack a cryptosystem became one of the hot topics in cryptanalysis. In particular, algebraic methods in side channel and differential fault analysis (DFA) attracted a lot of attention recently. In [13], Hojśık and Rudolf used DFA to recover the inner state of the stream cipher Trivium which leads to recovering the secret key. For this attack, they r...

Recently, various studies of attack methods of round reduction differential fault analysis (DFA) using fault injection in block cipher-implemented microcontrollers have been reported. However, few studies have focused on the quantitative evaluation method of round reduction DFA vulnerability using detailed fault injection timing dependency of attack success rate. This is required to improve mic...

A word w is called a synchronizing (recurrent, reset, directable) word of a deterministic finite automaton (DFA) if w brings all states of the automaton to some specific state; a DFA that has a synchronizing word is said to be synchronizable. Černý conjectured in 1964 that every n-state synchronizable DFA possesses a synchronizing word of length at most (n−1). We consider automata with aperiodi...

Dynamical factor analysis (DFA) is a generative dynamical algorithm, with linear mapping from factors to the observations and nonlinear mapping of the factor dynamics. The latter is modeled by a multilayer perceptron. Ensemble learning is used to estimate the DFA model in an unsupervised manner. The performance of the DFA have been tested in a set of artificially generated noisy modulated sinus...

This paper presents a new XML parsing method based on deterministic finite state automata (DFA). A DFA generator is described that automatically translates XML Schemas to DFAs for efficient parsing of XML documents and SOAP/XML messages. The DFA-based parsing approach supports the implementation of high-performance Web services. Two example case studies are described and performance results are...

We studied heart rate variability in rats by power scaling spectral analysis (PSSA), autoregressive modeling (AR), and detrended fluctuation analysis (DFA), assessed stability by coefficient of variation between consecutive 6-h epochs, and then compared cross-correlation among techniques. These same parameters were checked from baseline conditions through acute and chronic disease states (strep...

We analyzed a shell vial culture assay (SVA), real-time PCR, and a direct fluorescent antibody assay (DFA) for rapid detection of vaccinia virus from vaccination sites of Dryvax vaccine recipients. Of 47 samples assayed, 100% were positive by PCR, 89% were positive by SVA, and 40% were positive by DFA. DFA was limited by the need for adequate numbers of cells, with 32% of samples inadequate for...
