Research on deep differential fault analysis against MIBS by ZHAO Xin-jie1, WANG Tao 1, WANG Su-zhen2, WU Yang1

“…The MIBS algorithm and its differential fault analysis principle were presented,then three differential fault analysis methods against MIBS were proposed based on different depth of fault model and verified through experiments.Experiment results demonstrate that due to its Feistel structure and S-box differential feature,MIBS is vulnerable to deep differential fault attack.The best result is that after injecting one 4-bit fault into the 30th round left register,both the fault location and fault differential are unknown,the 64-bit MIBS master key searching space can be reduced to 224 and be re-covered after one minute brute-force-search.Moreover,the fault analysis method can provide some ideas on differential fault analysis against other block ciphers using S-box.…”

Multi-camera video collaborative analysis method based on edge computing by Zhibo QI, Lei DU, Ru HUO, Fan YANG, Tao HUANG

“…In order to reduce the processing volume of multi-camera real-time video data in smart city scenarios, a video collaborative analysis method based on machine learning algorithms at the edge was proposed.Firstly, for the important objects detected by each camera, different key windows were designed to filter the region of interest (RoI) in the video, reduce the video data volume and extract its features.Then, based on the extracted data features, the same objects in the videos from different cameras were annotated, and a strategy for calculating the association degree value between cameras was designed for further reducing the video data volume.Finally, the GC-ReID algorithm based on graph convolutional network (GCN) and re-identification (ReID) was proposed, aiming at achieving the collaborative analysis of multi-camera videos.The experimental results show that proposed method can effectively reduce the system latency and improve the video compression rate while ensuring the high accuracy, compared with the existing video analysis methods.…”
