The relation between particle number concentration and high frequency sound level of traffic noise by Kim, Sung Min, Hong, Joo Young, Jeon, Jin Yong

“…The results show that traffic speed and noise level of traffic have negative correlation in low frequency band, and relationship between traffic volume and traffic noise has negative correlation in mid frequency. In addition, the correlation between particles and traffic noise indicates that high frequency sound increase the concentration of particles road side area. …”

Practical pseudo-collisions for hash functions ARIRANG-224/384 by Guo, Jian, Matusiewicz, Krystian, Knudsen, Lars R., Ling, San, Wang, Huaxiong

“…We use this approach to find near-collisions with Hamming weight 32 for the full compression function as well as collisions for the compression function of ARIRANG reduced to 26 rounds, both with complexity close to 20 and memory requirements of only a few words.We use near collisions for the compression function to construct pseudo-collisions for the complete hash functions ARIRANG-224 and ARIRANG-384 with complexity 223 and close to 20, respectively.We implemented the attacks and provide examples of appropriate pairs of H,M values. …”
