| Summary: | At CRYPTO 2019, Gohr showed the significant advantages of neural distinguishers over traditional distinguishers in differential cryptanalysis. At fast software encryption (FSE) 2024, Bellini et al. provided a generic tool to automatically train the (related-key) differential neural distinguishers for different block ciphers. In this paper, based on the intrinsic principle of differential cryptanalysis and neural distinguisher, we propose a superior (related-key) differential neural distinguisher that uses the ciphertext pairs generated by two different differences. In addition, we give a framework to automatically train our (related-key) differential neural distinguisher with four steps: difference selection, sample generation, training pipeline, and evaluation scheme. To demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach, we apply it to the block ciphers: Simon, Speck, Simeck, and Hight. Compared to the existing results, our method can provide improved accuracy and even increase the number of rounds that can be analyzed.
