zkStudyClub - Reef: Fast Succinct Non-Interactive Zero-Knowledge Regex ProofsAlex Pruden
This paper presents Reef, a system for generating publicly verifiable succinct non-interactive zero-knowledge proofs that a committed document matches or does not match a regular expression. We describe applications such as proving the strength of passwords, the provenance of email despite redactions, the validity of oblivious DNS queries, and the existence of mutations in DNA. Reef supports the Perl Compatible Regular Expression syntax, including wildcards, alternation, ranges, capture groups, Kleene star, negations, and lookarounds. Reef introduces a new type of automata, Skipping Alternating Finite Automata (SAFA), that skips irrelevant parts of a document when producing proofs without undermining soundness, and instantiates SAFA with a lookup argument. Our experimental evaluation confirms that Reef can generate proofs for documents with 32M characters; the proofs are small and cheap to verify (under a second).

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

What is happening in the EAR?
Why hair cells are important for hearing?
How piezoelectric material can be used as artificial
cochlea epithelium ?
Effect of kanamycin and ethacrynic acid on Guinea pig ear
How the transmission of sound waves is done through
piezoelectric material?
Conclusion

3. Mammalian Ear composed of three parts-
external, middle and inner.
In inner ear, cochlea is present which is
responsible for hearing mechanism.
The Human ear is able to hear sound in
frequency range from high (20kHz) to low
(20Hz).
Cochlear hair cells convert sound signals into
electric signals.
Electric signals are transmitted to brain
through auditory nerve.
3
4. Damaged hair cells causes Deafness
(Sensorineural Hearing loss).
Piezoelectric membrane generate electric
potentials in response to sound stimuli.
Piezoelectric membrane can be implanted in
cochlea and it will work as cochlear
epithelium.
In this paper, experiment was done on
guinea pig.
Hearing devices can be developed using
piezoelectric material.
4
5. Sound will travel from external ear to middle ear
by putting pressure on tympanic membrane.
This will vibrate the stapes which is connected
to oval window.
Pressure on Oval window will help in movement
of fluids present in inner ear.
These vibrations leads to the oscillatory
movement of basilar membrane.
These movement leads to bending of inner hair
cells which is connected to auditory nerve.

7. In the organ of corti, two types of hair cells
are present .
One row of inner hair cells and three row of
outer hair cells.
Outer hair cells is responsible for amplifying
and filtering the signals.
Inner hair cells are responsible for
transmission of sound stimuli to auditory
neurons.

9. The Conversion of sound stimuli to electrical
signals is performed by the external speech
processor and transmitter and interior receiver
and stimulator[1].
Array of 24 platinum-iridium ball electrodes are
implanted into scala tympani.
The vibration of basilar membrane in response to
sound stimuli should be transmitted to
piezoelectric membrane, generating electric
output.
It produced maximum electric output when
placed at maximum vibration site.

10. A prototype device containing PVDF
membrane which is used as transducer.
It will response to frequency range of 16-
32KHz.

Kanamycin and ethacrynic acid is injected
into the guinea ear
Total damage of hair cell can be seen after
administrating the drug
Auditory primary neurons remained to
measure the action potential.
No loss of spiral ganglion is seen after
administrating the drug.
13. Piezoelectric device is basically based on the
traveling wave theory(Von Bekesy et.al).
A glass bead was placed on the basilar
membrane and its movement is measured by
Laser Doppler Vibrometer.
Piezoelectric membrane is coated with
silicon frame.
In following figure , Frequency change of
9Hz can be seen in basilar membrane and
piezoelectric membrane.

15. Piezoelectric membrane mimic the function
of basilar membrane and inner hair cells
using travelling wave theory and
microelectromechanical system.
The electric output of this device is not
sufficient.
An ex vivo model of guinea temporal bone is
able to generate high electric output.
15
16. By optimizing the location of piezoelectric
device in cochlea for obtaining maximum
oscillation.
Additional mechanisms are required for
mimicking the outer hair cells[1].
Examine other piezoelectric materials for
generation of electric output.
