Beyond full‐bit secure authenticated encryption without input‐length limitation by Akiko Inoue

“…However, due to the increased interest in lightweight cryptography, smaller block‐size primitives have been developed, which has led to more active research on AE schemes with beyond birthday‐bound security. Although all such AE schemes are secure up to a full‐bit (i.e. b‐bit) bound at most, Naito et al. proposed the first beyond full‐bit‐bound secure AE schemes, PFB_Plus and PFBω, at Eurocrypt 2020. …”

Quantifying Repeatability Reproducibility Sources of Error and Capacity of a Measurement: Demonstrated Using Laboratory Soil Plasticity Tests by Cheng Li, Jeramy C. Ashlock, Xuhao Wang

“…To quantify errors arising from a single operator or multiple laboratories, most testing standards uses a one-way analysis of variance- (ANOVA-) based method, which utilizes a simple standard deviation across all measurements. However, this method does not allow users to quantify the sources of error and capacity (i.e., the precision to tolerance ratio). …”
