An Open-Hardware Coarse-Grained Reconfigurable Array for Edge Computing

David Atienza Alonso, Giovanni Ansaloni, José Angel Miranda Calero, Benoît Walter Denkinger, Juan Pablo Sapriza Araujo, Ruben Rodriguez, Rubén Rodríguez Álvarez

In this work, we propose an open-hardware low-power coarse-grained reconfigurable array connected to a lightweight microcontroller and enclosed in an application mapping framework. The latter provides complete support to configure kernels in the reconfigur ...

Inferring free-energy barriers and kinetic rates from molecular dynamics via underdamped Langevin models

Fabio Pietrucci, Sara Bonella, David Daniel Girardier

Rare events include many of the most interesting transformation processes in condensed matter, from phase transitions to biomolecular conformational changes to chemical reactions. Access to the corresponding mechanisms, free-energy landscapes and kinetic r ...

ACTOR: Action-Guided Kernel Fuzzing

Mathias Josef Payer

Fuzzing reliably and efficiently finds bugs in software, including operating system kernels. In general, higher code coverage leads to the discovery of more bugs. This is why most existing kernel fuzzers adopt strategies to generate a series of inputs that ...

End-to-end kernel learning via generative random Fourier features

Fanghui Liu

Random Fourier features (RFFs) provide a promising way for kernel learning in a spectral case. Current RFFs-based kernel learning methods usually work in a two-stage way. In the first-stage process, learn-ing an optimal feature map is often formulated as a ...

Midas: Systematic Kernel TOCTTOU Protection

Mathias Josef Payer, Atri Bhattacharyya, Uros Tesic

Double-fetch bugs are a plague across all major operating system kernels. They occur when data is fetched twice across the user/kernel trust boundary while allowing concurrent modification. Such bugs enable an attacker to illegally access memory, cause den ...

Failure and success of the spectral bias prediction for Laplace Kernel Ridge Regression: the case of low-dimensional data

Matthieu Wyart, Antonio Sclocchi, Umberto Maria Tomasini

Recently, several theories including the replica method made predictions for the generalization error of Kernel Ridge Regression. In some regimes, they predict that the method has a 'spectral bias': decomposing the true function f* on the eigenbasis of the ...

NrOS: Effective Replication and Sharing in an Operating System

Sanidhya Kashyap

Writing a correct operating system kernel is notoriously hard. Kernel code requires manual memory management and type-unsafe code and must efficiently handle complex, asynchronous events. In addition, increasing CPU core counts further complicate kernel de ...

USBFuzz: A Framework for Fuzzing USB Drivers by Device Emulation

Mathias Josef Payer

The Universal Serial Bus (USB) connects external devices to a host. This interface exposes the OS kernels and device drivers to attacks by malicious devices. Unfortunately, kernels and drivers were developed under a security model that implicitly trusts co ...

A conformal dispersion relation: correlations from absorption

Din Carmi

We introduce the analog of Kramers-Kronig dispersion relations for correlators of four scalar operators in an arbitrary conformal field theory. The correlator is expressed as an integral over its "absorptive part", defined as a double discontinuity, times ...

Kernel Density Estimation through Density Constrained Near Neighbor Search

Mikhail Kapralov, Navid Nouri

In this paper we revisit the kernel density estimation problem: given a kernel K(x, y) and a dataset of n points in high dimensional Euclidean space, prepare a data structure that can quickly output, given a query q, a (1 + epsilon)-approximation to mu := ...
