Abstract: In this paper, we investigate the effects of violating the conditions of hash function uniformity and/or independence on the false positive probability of Bloom Filters (BF). To this end, we ...

Locality Sensitive Hashing (LSH) is a family of hashing methods that tent to produce the same hash (or signature) for similar items. There exist different LSH functions, that each correspond to a ...

In the realm of computer science, it’s hard to go too far without encountering hashing or hash functions. The concept appears throughout security, from encryption to password storage to crypto, and ...

Solana developers proposed a new hashing system that would change how the Solana network verifies and traces user accounts in a bid to fix scalability issues stemming from mass usage. In a Jan. 6 ...

In today’s fast-paced world, maintaining a healthy weight and efficient metabolism can often feel like an uphill battle. Many individuals struggle with weight loss, despite following strict diets and ...

Hashing is a cryptographic process that allows converting any type of data into a unique fixed-size numeric value called “hash”. Hashes are generated using hashing algorithms that are both ...
