Experience 2
Supervised by Prof. Guillermo Benito Morales Luna
- Department of Mathematics with Computer Science
- October 2023 - January 2025
- Duties & Achievements:
- Designed and developed a system realizing the programming reduction of an NP-Complete problem by researching relevant papers and using C/C++, i.e., calculating the polynomial-time reductions of the k-GraphColoring problem.
- Implemented a public-key encryption scheme based on Chebyshev Polynomials; utilized GNU Multiple Precision Library to increase the arithmetic precision; developed the complexity from O(n) to O(logn) by adopting matrix representation of Chebyshev polynomials and binary expression factorization of extremely large numbers to boost computational efficiency.
- Conducted numerical analysis of the cryptosystem to identify the correlation between the success of the decryption and the number of significant digits of plaintexts, l, and the precision of the arithmetical calculations, m.
- Performed the Bergamo’s attack to the numerical implementation of the cryptosystem; assessed the system’s robustness by pointing out the relevance of the effectiveness of the attack and l, m.
- Spent hundreds of hours conducting extensive and in-depth research, growing into a more independent, self-motivated, and passionate learner.
Experience 3
Supervised by Prof. Khadga Jung Karki
- Department of Physics, Functional Nonlinear Spectroscopy Lab
- December 2021 - December 2024
- Duties & Achievements:
- Developed the Analog Digital Converter of a signal acquisition equipment, RedPitaya,to realize continuous signal acquisition with C/C++; stored experimental data using binary numbers instead of ASCII to reduce the memory occupation.
- Developed software programs of a stepping machine and RedPitaya to achieve simultaneous operation, thus simplifying the experiments and increasing the efficiency; created a Graphical User Interface using wxWidgets to provide easy accessibility for other lab members.
- Followed the Frequency Resolved Optical Gating method to retrieve the phase from experimental data of unknown pulses based on the Principal Component Generalized Projection algorithm using Matlab/Python; refined the iteration of the algorithms by comparing and adopting various methods from literature to enhance the accuracy of the phase retrieval process.
- Supported fellow graduate students majoring in Physics in the lab in writing scripts, developing programs, and understanding the algorithms; collaborated closely with them in analyzing optical properties of processed data after applying the algorithms and Fourier transform, such as intensity, phase, and frequency modulation.
