  • Accountable Privacy for Decentralized Anonymous Payments
    Accountable Privacy for Decentralized Anonymous Payments Christina Garman, Matthew Green, and Ian Miers Johns Hopkins University fcgarman, mgreen, [email protected] Abstract. Decentralized ledger-based currencies such as Bitcoin provide a means to construct payment systems without requiring a trusted bank. Removing this trust assumption comes at the significant cost of transac- tion privacy. A number of academic works have sought to improve the privacy offered by ledger-based currencies using anonymous electronic cash (e-cash) techniques. Unfortunately, this strong degree of privacy creates new regulatory concerns, since the new private transactions can- not be subject to the same controls used to prevent individuals from conducting illegal transactions such as money laundering. We propose an initial approach to addressing this issue by adding privacy preserving policy-enforcement mechanisms that guarantee regulatory compliance, allow selective user tracing, and admit tracing of tainted coins (e.g., ransom payments). To accomplish this new functionality we also provide improved definitions for Zerocash and, of independent interest, an efficient construction for simulation sound zk-SNARKs. 1 Introduction The success of decentralized currencies like Bitcoin has led to renewed interest in anonymous electronic cash both in academia [2, 9, 20] and in practice (including Coinjoin, CryptoNote, and DarkWallet). It has also highlighted new problems related to trust, privacy and regulatory compliance. In modern electronic payment systems, users must trust that their bank is not tampering with the system (e.g., by \forging" extra currency), that no party is abusing the privacy of users' transactions, and simultaneously, that other users are not using the system to engage in money laundering or extortion.

Mason Electrical and Computer Engineering, Michigan State Univ., East Lansing, MI, USA {parsneja, huyaoxin, wh1816, ashoorie, mason}@msu.edu Abstract— This paper presents a multi-channel, multi- technique electrochemical instrument with the size, power and performance for portable applications such as point-of-care diagnosis, wearable sensing, and toxic chemical detection. Composed of a custom analog interface and a commercial low- power microcontroller, the portable instrument is capable of dynamically adapting to a wide input current range exhibited by many electrode/sensor types and observed in the transient response of many electrochemical techniques. The instrument can generate several standard electrochemical stimulus waveforms or an arbitrary waveform, independently and in parallel on multiple channels, while streaming measurement results to a USB host.

Seamless Authentication For Ubiquitous Devices Shrirang Mare Technical Report TR2016-793 Dartmouth Computer Science Copyright c 2016, Shrirang Mare All rights reserved Abstract User authentication is an integral part of our lives; we authenticate ourselves to personal computers and a variety of other things several times a day. Authentication is burdensome. When we wish to access to a computer or a resource, it is an additional task that we need to perform – an interruption in our workflow. In this dissertation, we study people’s authentication behavior and attempt to make authentication to desktops and smartphones less burdensome for users. First, we present the findings of a user study we conducted to understand people’s authentication behavior: things they authenticate to, how and when they authenticate, authentication errors they encounter and why, and their opinions about authentication. In our study, participants performed about 39 authentications per day on average; the majority of these authentications were to personal computers (desktop, laptop, smartphone, tablet) and with passwords, but the number of authentications to other things (e.g., car, door) was not insignificant.

  • ASL Student Project Description
    Deep Learning for gesture recognition based on novel hardware (Google project Soli) Project description We are currently witnessing several drastic shifts in the computing landscape. The traditional PC and hence the traditional mouse and keyboard-based UI are no longer the primary computing paradigm but are increasingly complemented by other paradigms such as direct-touch and gestural interaction. As our environments become smarter and the line between virtual and real worlds becomes blurred, it also becomes increasingly clear that traditional forms of user input are no longer ade- quate for mobile scenarios. With technologies such as wearable computing, Augmented and Virtual Reality (AR/VR) transi- tioning from the research labs into the mainstream market the need for a general purpose, contact-and wireless, and high precision, high bandwidth man-machine interface becomes increasingly urgent. This project is aiming at building an intelligent algorithm that could recognize low-effort, low-energy and high-bandwidth interactions involving primarily small muscle groups. The interaction paradigm is based on UWB radar sensor (Google project Soli: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0QNiZfSsPc0) which is sensitive to tiny motions, immune to optical occlusion, works both indoor/outdoor, through paper/clothing/thin plastics at flexible range. Recently convolutional deep neural networks (DNNs) have made a significant impact in computer vision. DNNs have outper- formed state-of-the-art machine learning algorithms in very large-scale image recognition and hand-written digits recogni- tion. In a recent competition on multimodal recognition of 20 dynamic gestures from the Italian sign language, an algorithm based on convolutional neural networks ranked first among 17 competing methods.

Josep Paradells Aspas Wireless Network Group Escola T`ecnicaSuperior d'Enginyeria de Telecomunicaci´ode Barcelona June 2015 Abstract INSA de Lyon - T´el´ecommunications, Services et Usages Escola T`ecnicaSuperior d'Enginyeria de Telecomunicaci´ode Barcelona Master's degree in Telecommunications Engineering Light sensor development for Ara platform by Alexis DUQUE During the last years, Visible Light Communication (VLC), a novel technology that enables standard Light-Emitting-Diodes (LEDs) to transmit data, is gaining significant attention. In the near future, this technology could enable devices containing LEDs { such as car lights, city lights, screens and home appliances { to carry information or data to the end-users, using their smartphone. However, VLC is currently limited by the end-point receiver, such as a the mobile camera, or a peripheral connected through the jack input and to unleash the full potential of VLC, more advanced receiver are required. On other, few year ago, Google ATAP - the Google innovation department - announced the Ara initiative. This consist on a modular phone where parts of the phone, like cameras, sensors or networks can be changed. So when a new feature appears or required by the user it is not needed to change the mobile phone, just to buy the modules with the functionality. This Master Thesis presents the design and development of a simple module that will support communication by light (VLC) using the Ara Module Developer Kit provided by Google. It consists on building a front-end circuit, connecting a photodiode that receives the level of light and use it as data carrier, in order to receive and display data inside a custom Android application on the Ara smartphone.

Hal ini melatarbelakangi untuk mencoba mengadaptasi tampilan aplikasi yang digunakan banyak orang seperti Google Drive, Google Mail, dan Yahoo Mail. Bentuk tampilan ini dipilih karena tampilan ini sudah digunakan lebih dari 15 tahun dan bentuk tampilan antarmuka ini tidak pernah dirubah serta masih digunakan hingga sekarang. Tujuan dari percobaan ini hadir adalah untuk membuktikan dugaan, bahwa dengan mengadaptasi tata letak tampilan antarmuka bertahun-tahun digunakan serta banyak pengguna yang familiar dalam bentuk tata letak tampilan antarmuka tersebut, membuat pengguna aplikasi dapat dengan mudah beradaptasi pada bentuk tampilan yang sama meskipun diimplementasikan pada aplikasi baru. Dengan mengetahui desain tampilan antarmuka tersebut mudah di adaptasi oleh pengguna, hal ini bisa digunakan untuk perusahaan lain yang ingin membuat aplikasi namun tidak memiliki banyak dana pengembangan dalam riset tampilan antar muka. Hasil dari pengujian tahap awal yang dilakukan pada perncangan ini adalah dengan mengadaptasi tampilan antarmuka yang sudah digunakan bertahun- tahun dapat membantu mempercepat pengguna dalam beradaptasi menggunakan aplikasi yang baru.
