Algebraic Geometric Codes and their relation to Cryptography using Elliptic Curves

Communication is the process of transmitting data across channel. Whenever data is transmitted across a channel, errors are likely to occur. Coding theory is a stream of science that deals with finding efficient ways to encode and decode data, so that any likely errors can be detected and corrected. There are many methods to achieve coding and decoding. One among them is Algebraic Geometric Codes that can be constructed from curves. Cryptography is the science ol‘ security of transmitting messages from a sender to a receiver. The objective is to encrypt message in such a way that an eavesdropper would not be able to read it. A eryptosystem is a set of algorithms for encrypting and decrypting for the purpose of the process of encryption and decryption. Public key eryptosystem such as RSA and DSS are traditionally being prel‘en‘ec| for the purpose of secure communication through the channel. llowever Elliptic Curve eryptosystem have become a viable altemative since they provide greater security and also because of their usage of key of smaller length compared to other existing crypto systems. Elliptic curve cryptography is based on group of points on an elliptic curve over a finite field. This thesis deals with Algebraic Geometric codes and their relation to Cryptography using elliptic curves. Here Goppa codes are used and the curves used are elliptic curve over a finite field. We are relating Algebraic Geometric code to Cryptography by developing a cryptographic algorithm, which includes the process of encryption and decryption of messages. We are making use of fundamental properties of Elliptic curve cryptography for generating the algorithm and is used here to relate both.

Alterations in brainstem a2 adrenoreceptor activity in pyridoxine-deficient rat model of hypertension

Moderate pyridoxine deficiency in adult male Sprague-Dawley rats results in significant hypertension, associated with a general sympathetic stimulation , including an increase in the turnover of norepinephrine in the heart. Treatment of these rats with pyridoxine reversed blood pressure to normal within 24 h. Treatment of pyridoxine-deficient rats with clonidine or x-methyl dihydroxyphenylalanine (x-methyl DOPA) also reduced the blood pressure of these animals to normal . There was also a significant increase in the Bma, of high and low affinity [3H]p-amino-clonidine binding to crude synaptosomal membrane preparations of the brain stem of deficient rats indicating chronic underexposure of)(, adrenoreceptors to endogenous norepinephrin.

A Cryptosystem Using the Concepts of Algebraic Geometric Code

Cryptosystem using linear codes was developed in 1978 by Mc-Eliece. Later in 1985 Niederreiter and others developed a modified version of cryptosystem using concepts of linear codes. But these systems were not used frequently because of its larger key size. In this study we were designing a cryptosystem using the concepts of algebraic geometric codes with smaller key size. Error detection and correction can be done efficiently by simple decoding methods using the cryptosystem developed. Approach: Algebraic geometric codes are codes, generated using curves. The cryptosystem use basic concepts of elliptic curves cryptography and generator matrix. Decrypted information takes the form of a repetition code. Due to this complexity of decoding procedure is reduced. Error detection and correction can be carried out efficiently by solving a simple system of linear equations, there by imposing the concepts of security along with error detection and correction. Results: Implementation of the algorithm is done on MATLAB and comparative analysis is also done on various parameters of the system. Attacks are common to all cryptosystems. But by securely choosing curve, field and representation of elements in field, we can overcome the attacks and a stable system can be generated. Conclusion: The algorithm defined here protects the information from an intruder and also from the error in communication channel by efficient error correction methods.

A model of Distributed Ayurvedic Diagnosis and Therapy System for Hridroga Using Agents

Diagnosis of Hridroga (cardiac disorders) in Ayurveda requires the combination of many different types of data, including personal details, patient symptoms, patient histories, general examination results, Ashtavidha pareeksha results etc. Computer-assisted decision support systems must be able to combine these data types into a seamless system. Intelligent agents, an approach that has been used chiefly in business applications, is used in medical diagnosis in this case. This paper is about a multi-agent system named “Distributed Ayurvedic Diagnosis and Therapy System for Hridroga using Agents” (DADTSHUA). It describes the architecture of the DADTSHUA model .This system is using mobile agents and ontology for passing data through the network. Due to this, transport delay can be minimized. It is a system which will be very helpful for the beginning physicians to eliminate his ambiguity in diagnosis and therapy. The system is implemented using Java Agent DEvelopment framework (JADE), which is a java-complaint mobile agent platform from TILab.

Extension schemes for the Alignment Model of English-Malayalam Statistical Machine Translator

In Statistical Machine Translation from English to Malayalam, an unseen English sentence is translated into its equivalent Malayalam sentence using statistical models. A parallel corpus of English-Malayalam is used in the training phase. Word to word alignments has to be set among the sentence pairs of the source and target language before subjecting them for training. This paper deals with certain techniques which can be adopted for improving the alignment model of SMT. Methods to incorporate the parts of speech information into the bilingual corpus has resulted in eliminating many of the insignificant alignments. Also identifying the name entities and cognates present in the sentence pairs has proved to be advantageous while setting up the alignments. Presence of Malayalam words with predictable translations has also contributed in reducing the insignificant alignments. Moreover, reduction of the unwanted alignments has brought in better training results. Experiments conducted on a sample corpus have generated reasonably good Malayalam translations and the results are verified with F measure, BLEU and WER evaluation metrics.
