Side Channel Attack Counter Measure Using A Moving Target Architecture, Jithin Joseph Apr 2021

Side Channel Attack Counter Measure Using A Moving Target Architecture, Jithin Joseph

Electrical and Computer Engineering ETDs

A novel countermeasure to side-channel power analysis attacks called Side-channel Power analysis Resistance for Encryption Algorithms using DPR or SPREAD is investigated in this thesis. The countermeasure leverages a strategy that is best characterized as a moving target architecture. Modern field programmable gate arrays (FPGA) architectures provide support for dynamic partial reconfiguration (DPR), a feature that allows real-time reconfiguration of the programmable logic (PL). The moving target architecture proposed in this work leverages DPR to implement a power analysis countermeasure to side-channel attacks, the most common of which are referred to as differential power analysis (DPA) and correlation power analysis …

The paper presents Intelligent Control (IC) Interfaces for real time control of mechatronic systems applied to Hardening Process Control (HPC) in order to improvement of the material’s mechanical characteristics. Implementation of IC laws in the intelligent real time control interfaces depends on the particular circumstances of the models characteristics used and the exact definition of optimization problem. The results led to the development of the IC interfaces in real time through Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) and neural networks (NN) using off- line the regression methods.


Frequency Domain Decomposition Of Digital Video Containing Multiple Moving Objects, Victor M. Stone Nov 2018

Frequency Domain Decomposition Of Digital Video Containing Multiple Moving Objects, Victor M. Stone

Electrical and Computer Engineering ETDs

Motion estimation has been dominated by time domain methods such as block matching and optical flow. However, these methods have problems with multiple moving objects in the video scene, moving backgrounds, noise, and fractional pixel/frame motion. This dissertation proposes a frequency domain method (FDM) that solves these problems. The methodology introduced here addresses multiple moving objects, with or without a moving background, 3-D frequency domain decomposition of digital video as the sum of locally translational (or, in the case of background, a globally translational motion), with high noise rejection. Additionally, via a version of the chirp-Z, fractional pixel/frame motion detection …


A Novel Indoor Positioning System For Firefighters In Unprepared Scenarios, Vamsi Karthik Vadlamani Oct 2018

A Novel Indoor Positioning System For Firefighters In Unprepared Scenarios, Vamsi Karthik Vadlamani

Electrical and Computer Engineering ETDs

Situational awareness and indoor positioning of firefighters are types of information of paramount importance to the success of search and rescue operations. GPS units are undependable for use in Indoor Positioning Systems due to their associated mar- gins of error in position and their reliance on satellite communication that can be interrupted inside large structures. There are few other techniques like dead reck- oning, Wifi and bluetooth based triangulation, Structure from Motion (SFM) based scene reconstruction for Indoor positioning system. However due to high temper- atures, the rapidly changing environment of fires, and low parallax in the thermal images, the …


Intelligent Computational Transportation, Yuming Zhang Jul 2018

Intelligent Computational Transportation, Yuming Zhang

Electrical and Computer Engineering ETDs

Transportation is commonplace around our world. Numerous researchers dedicate great efforts to vast transportation research topics. The purpose of this dissertation is to investigate and address a couple of transportation problems with respect to geographic discretization, pavement surface automatic examination, and traffic ow simulation, using advanced computational technologies. Many applications require a discretized 2D geographic map such that local information can be accessed efficiently. For example, map matching, which aligns a sequence of observed positions to a real-world road network, needs to find all the nearby road segments to the individual positions. To this end, the map is discretized by …


Fundamentals Of Neutrosophic Logic And Sets And Their Role In Artificial Intelligence (Fundamentos De La Lógica Y Los Conjuntos Neutrosóficos Y Su Papel En La Inteligencia Artificial ), Florentin Smarandache, Maykel Leyva-Vazquez Jan 2018

Fundamentals Of Neutrosophic Logic And Sets And Their Role In Artificial Intelligence (Fundamentos De La Lógica Y Los Conjuntos Neutrosóficos Y Su Papel En La Inteligencia Artificial ), Florentin Smarandache, Maykel Leyva-Vazquez

Branch Mathematics and Statistics Faculty and Staff Publications

Neutrosophy is a new branch of philosophy which studies the origin, nature and scope of neutralities. This has formed the basis for a series of mathematical theories that generalize the classical and fuzzy theories such as the neutrosophic sets and the neutrosophic logic. In the paper, the fundamental concepts related to neutrosophy and its antecedents are presented. Additionally, fundamental concepts of artificial intelligence will be defined and how neutrosophy has come to strengthen this discipline.


Some Aggregation Operators For Bipolar-Valued Hesitant Fuzzy Information, Florentin Smarandache, Tahir Mahmood, Kifayat Ullah, Qaisar Khan Jan 2018

Some Aggregation Operators For Bipolar-Valued Hesitant Fuzzy Information, Florentin Smarandache, Tahir Mahmood, Kifayat Ullah, Qaisar Khan

Branch Mathematics and Statistics Faculty and Staff Publications

In this article we define some aggregation operators for bipolar-valued hesitant fuzzy sets. These operations include bipolar-valued hesitant fuzzy ordered weighted averaging (BPVHFOWA) operator, bipolar-valued hesitant fuzzy ordered weighted geometric (BPVHFOWG) operator and their generalized forms. We also define hybrid aggregation operators and their generalized forms and solved a decision-making problem on these operation.


Application For Position And Load Reference Generation Of A Simulated Mechatronic Chain, Florentin Smarandache, V. Vladareanu, S.B. Cononovici, M. Migdalovici, H. Wang, Y. Feng Jan 2018

Application For Position And Load Reference Generation Of A Simulated Mechatronic Chain, Florentin Smarandache, V. Vladareanu, S.B. Cononovici, M. Migdalovici, H. Wang, Y. Feng

Branch Mathematics and Statistics Faculty and Staff Publications

The paper presents the position and load reference generation for a motor stand simulating a mechatronic chain, in this case a three degree of freedom robot leg. The task is accomplished using three PLC controlled motors in position as the robot joint actuators coupled with three controlled in torque, simulating the load at each simulation time-step. The paper briefly discusses the mathematical model and presents the visual interface used in the simulation, which is then to be further integrated into a virtual environment robot control application.


Prediction Of Graduation Delay Based On Student Characterisitics And Performance, Tushar Ojha Jul 2017

Prediction Of Graduation Delay Based On Student Characterisitics And Performance, Tushar Ojha

Electrical and Computer Engineering ETDs

A college student's success depends on many factors including pre-university characteristics and university student support services. Student graduation rates are often used as an objective metric to measure institutional effectiveness. This work studies the impact of such factors on graduation rates, with a particular focus on delay in graduation. In this work, we used feature selection methods to identify a subset of the pre-institutional features with the highest discriminative power. In particular, Forward Selection with Linear Regression, Backward Elimination with Linear Regression, and Lasso Regression were applied. The feature sets were selected in a multivariate fashion. High school GPA, ACT …
