Heuristic-Based Primer Set Minimization for PCR: Adaptation of Iterated Local Search for a Set Cover Variant

AmpliDiff is an algorithm for studying environmental samples. As the study of those DNA samples is complicated, the runtime of AmpliDiff holds back its usability. One time-consuming part is exactly solving a variant of the Set Cover problem. This paper researches whether this exact solution can be replaced by heuristics to reduce the runtime....

Improving machine learning based side-channel analysis: can dropout be dropped out?

Analysing physical leakages (e.g. power consumption and electromagnetic radiation) of cryptographic devices can be used by adversaries to extract secret keys. Over the last couple of years, researchers have shown that machine learning has potential for this process. Machine learning models need to be fine-tuned to enhance key extraction...

Draadloos sensornetwerk in dijken

Huidige methoden voor het observeren van de conditie van dijken zijn niet altijd even efficiënt en nauwkeurig. Het bedrijf ‘Alert Solutions’ biedt een vernieuwde, meer betrouwbaardere en efficiëntere methode aan om de conditie van dijken te meten. Het is nu nog noodzakelijk om hiervoor een kabel in de dijk te graven. Graafwerkzaamheden in dijken...
