Artificial Diversity and Defense Security (ADDSec)

Artificial Diversity and Defense Security (ADDSec) machine learning algorithms are used to classify and cluster threats so that an appropriate response can be initiated as a mitigation strategy. The package includes an ensemble of machine learning algorithms such as Support Vector Machines, naïve bayes, logistic regression, and random forest that evolve with the data to recognize anomalous behavior at the host and network levels. Inputs into the machine learning algorithms include end host system calls, system utilization, packet captures, and syslog messages. The machine learning algorithms can be retrained based on user defined intervals or on the number of packets received. ADDSEC's threat responses include Internet Protocol (IP) Address randomization, application port number randomization, and application library randomization. The IP randomization implementation is built on top of a Software Defined Networking (SDN) framework. The SDN controller installs flows on each of the SDN switches with randomized source and destination IP addresses. The application port numbers are randomized using iptables. The application library randomization is created with a LLVM compiler. All randomization schemes are transparent to the endpoints on the network.

Sudoku Online Testing Framework v.0.2

The Sudoku Online Testing Framework provides a configurable basis for testing user interactions to solve visualization-related problems with sudoku puzzles and games. It consists of a server, a client, and test code. The python server implements sudoku puzzle logic and board selection functions. The JavaScript client implements a graphical user interface (GUI) front-end to display the puzzles and facilitate interactions with users. Within the GUI, logical rules may be selected. Cells may be selected to “pivot” on to make a board for each possible value in the cell.

Stabilizer Rank Strong Simulation v.0.1

This software improves upon the Clifford gate+T gate magic state strong simulation algorithm by Brayvi and Gosset. It provides a better stabilizer state decomposition that scales as 2^{0.463t}, an improvement over 2^{0.468t}, for t T gate magic states. This code enables simulations of universal quantum computing with that asymptotic scaling cost.

Gauss Sum Strong Simulation v.0.1

Universal quantum circuits can be formulated in the Pauli measurement-based formalism as input T gate magic states, Clifford gates, and then multi-Pauli measurements. This code simulates single-Pauli measurements to show some theoretical bounds on the cost of full multi-Pauli measurements.

Weak Simulation v.0.1

The SPARSIFY algorithm implemented by the code allows for classical simulation of universal quantum computer sample outcomes. The code sparsifies the stabilizer decomposition of a qubit t-tensored T gate magic state to some additive error. This is accomplished by either independent L1 sampling or with correlated L1 sampling to supplement an independent subset, which offers a more efficient decomposition: for a given t, a sparser decomposition is sufficient with correlated L1 sampling to satisfy a given additive error.
