Abstract: Computing Modular multiplicative inverse is an important step in many arithmetic algorithms used in Cryptography. For example, Montgomery modular multiplication [2] is required to find out ...

Kernel ridge regression (KRR) is a regression technique for predicting a single numeric value and can deliver high accuracy for complex, non-linear data. KRR combines a kernel function (most commonly ...

Google DeepMind’s AI systems have taken big scientific strides in recent years — from predicting the 3D structures of almost every known protein in the universe to forecasting weather more accurately ...

I started the bitcoin_math project in order to teach myself the basics of Bitcoin math from first principles, without having to wade through the source code of any of the crypto or "bignum" libraries ...

The increasing use of new technologies and the internet underscores the need to ensure users’ privacy and security while browsing the web. To achieve this, encryption schemes rely on sharing keys ...

The security of Bitcoin, and other blockchains, such as Liquid, hinges on the use of digital signatures algorithms such as ECDSA and Schnorr signatures. A C library called libsecp256k1, named after ...

Various applications use asymmetric cryptography to secure communications between both parties, and it raises the main issue of generating vast amounts of computation and storage. Thus, elliptic curve ...

The Utils.modInv function internally uses 26 as the modulus rather than the argument y. The bug is not externally visible because it's used in the Affine Decode operation, which uses an alphabet with ...
