Keystroke dynamics study the way in which users input text via their keyboards, which is unique to each individual, and can form a component of a behavioral biometric system to improve existing account security. Keystroke dynamics systems on free-text data use n-graphs that measure the timing between consecutive keystrokes to distinguish between users. Many algorithms require 500, 1,000, or more keystrokes to achieve EERs of below 10%. In this paper, we propose an instance-based graph comparison algorithm to reduce the number of keystrokes required to authenticate users. Commonly used features such as monographs and digraphs are investigated. Feature importance is determined and used to construct a fused classifier. Detection error tradeoff (DET) curves are produced with different numbers of keystrokes. The fused classifier outperforms the state-of-the-art with EERs of 7.9%, 5.7%, 3.4%, and 2.7% for test samples of 50, 100, 200, and 500 keystrokes.
Resilient control systems should efficiently restore control into physical systems not only after the sabotage of themselves, but also after breaking physical systems. To enhance resilience of control systems, given an originally minimal-input controlled linear-time invariant(LTI) physical system, we address the problem of efficient control recovery into it after removing a known system vertex by finding the minimum number of inputs. According to the minimum input theorem, given a digraph embedded into LTI model and involving a precomputed maximum matching, this problem is modeled into recovering controllability of it after removing a known network vertex. Then, we recover controllability of the residual network by efficiently finding a maximum matching rather than recomputation. As a result, except for precomputing a maximum matching and the following removed vertex, the worst-case execution time of control recovery into the residual LTI physical system is linear.
