Multi-factor Physical Layer Security Authentication in Short Blocklength Communication
Lightweight and low latency security schemes at the physical layer that have
recently attracted a lot of attention include: (i) physical unclonable
functions (PUFs), (ii) localization based authentication, and, (iii) secret key
generation (SKG) from wireless fading coefficients. In this paper, we focus on
short blocklengths and propose a fast, privacy preserving, multi-factor
authentication protocol that uniquely combines PUFs, proximity estimation and
SKG. We focus on delay constrained applications and demonstrate the performance
of the SKG scheme in the short blocklength by providing a numerical comparison
of three families of channel codes, including half rate low density parity
check codes (LDPC), Bose Chaudhuri Hocquenghem (BCH), and, Polar Slepian Wolf
codes for n=512, 1024. The SKG keys are incorporated in a zero-round-trip-time
resumption protocol for fast re-authentication. All schemes of the proposed
mutual authentication protocol are shown to be secure through formal proofs
using Burrows, Abadi and Needham (BAN) and Mao and Boyd (MB) logic as well as
the Tamarin-prover
Clustering Arabic Tweets for Sentiment Analysis
The focus of this study is to evaluate the impact of linguistic preprocessing and similarity functions for clustering Arabic Twitter tweets. The experiments apply an optimized version of the standard K-Means algorithm to assign tweets into positive and negative categories. The results show that root-based stemming has a significant advantage over light stemming in all settings. The Averaged Kullback-Leibler Divergence similarity function clearly outperforms the Cosine, Pearson Correlation, Jaccard Coefficient and Euclidean functions. The combination of the Averaged Kullback-Leibler Divergence and root-based stemming achieved the highest purity of 0.764 while the second-best purity was 0.719. These results are of importance as it is contrary to normal-sized documents where, in many information retrieval applications, light stemming performs better than root-based stemming and the Cosine function is commonly used

THaW publications
In 2013, the National Science Foundation\u27s Secure and Trustworthy Cyberspace program awarded a Frontier grant to a consortium of four institutions, led by Dartmouth College, to enable trustworthy cybersystems for health and wellness. As of this writing, the Trustworthy Health and Wellness (THaW) project\u27s bibliography includes more than 130 significant publications produced with support from the THaW grant; these publications document the progress made on many fronts by the THaW research team. The collection includes dissertations, theses, journal papers, conference papers, workshop contributions and more. The bibliography is organized as a Zotero library, which provides ready access to citation materials and abstracts and associates each work with a URL where it may be found, cluster (category), several content tags, and a brief annotation summarizing the work\u27s contribution.

Security Technologies and Methods for Advanced Cyber Threat Intelligence, Detection and Mitigation
The rapid growth of the Internet interconnectivity and complexity of communication systems has led us to a significant growth of cyberattacks globally often with severe and disastrous consequences. The swift development of more innovative and effective (cyber)security solutions and approaches are vital which can detect, mitigate and prevent from these serious consequences. Cybersecurity is gaining momentum and is scaling up in very many areas. This book builds on the experience of the Cyber-Trust EU project’s methods, use cases, technology development, testing and validation and extends into a broader science, lead IT industry market and applied research with practical cases. It offers new perspectives on advanced (cyber) security innovation (eco) systems covering key different perspectives. The book provides insights on new security technologies and methods for advanced cyber threat intelligence, detection and mitigation. We cover topics such as cyber-security and AI, cyber-threat intelligence, digital forensics, moving target defense, intrusion detection systems, post-quantum security, privacy and data protection, security visualization, smart contracts security, software security, blockchain, security architectures, system and data integrity, trust management systems, distributed systems security, dynamic risk management, privacy and ethics
