abstract: "Automated methods can be used to generate cryptosystems by combining the primitives in an arbitrary fashion, to weed out insecure cryptosystems, and to prove the security of those that survive. In this paper, we study several algorithmic problems arising from the verification of automatically synthesized cryptosystems built from block ciphers, in a theory that includes ACUN. One of these is static equivalence to an algorithm that produces a sequence of random terms. The other is invertibility, the problem of determining whether, given an automatically synthesized cryptosystem, built from block ciphers, and the ability to compute inverses, is it always possible to compute the original plaintext from the ciphertext? We show that static equivalence to random in this theory is undecidable in general. In addition, we identify a reasonable special case for which there is a decidable condition implying security, along with an algorithm for verifying it. For invertibility, we identify a reasonable class of cryptosystems for which invertibility is equivalent to a simple syntactic condition that can be easily verified."

abstract: "We present a new tool for the automatic synthesis and verifi-
cation of cryptographic algorithms. Currently the tool considers symbolic
security and invertibility of recursively defined modes of operation with
an xor-operation and encryption. A cryptographic mode of operation is
an algorithm for encrypting a message of arbitrary length using a block
cipher that only encrypts messages of a single fixed length. The system
can both automatically generate modes and accept user-defined ones.
These modes can then be checked for properties such as security and
invertibility. In order to analyze the modes, the tool utilizes term rewrit-
ing and unification methods which are implemented in a core supporting
library. The state of the tool and underlying library are in an initial iter-
ation. The goal is to continue expanding the tool to consider additional
security questions and cryptosystems."

title: "A Framework for Testimony-Infused Automated Adjudicative Dynamic
Multi-Agent Reasoning in Ethically Charged Scenarios"

publish_date: "2022/07"
conference: "International Conference on Robot Ethics and Standards"

abstract: "In “high stakes” multi-agent decision-making under uncertainty, testimonial evidence flows from
“witness” agents to “adjudicator” agents, where the latter must rationally fix belief and knowl-
edge, and act accordingly. The testimonies provided may be incomplete or even deceptive, and
in many domains are offered in a context that includes other kinds of evidence, some of which
may be incompatible with these testimonies. Therefore, before believing a testimony and on that
basis moving forward, the adjudicator must systematically reason to suitable strength of belief, in
a manner that takes account of said context, and globally judges the core issue at hand. To fur-
ther complicate matters, since the relevant information perceived by the adjudicator changes over
time, adjudication is a nonmonontonic/defeasible affair: adjudicators must dynamically strengthen,
weaken, defeat, and reinstate belief and knowledge. Toward the engineering of artificial agents ca-
pable of handling these representation-and-reasoning demands arising from testimonial evidence
in multi-agent decision-making, we explore herein extensions to one of our prior cognitive calculi:
the Inductive Cognitive Event Calculus (IDCEC). We ground these extensions in a recent, tragic
drone-strike scenario that unfolded in Kabul, Afghanistan, in the hope that use by humans of our
brand of logic-based AI in future such scenarios will save human lives."
